Kenya AA...Who knows, at this point...
Maybe not even the people at CPQ.

Was the statement concerning March about shipments of PC units?
There are many corporations who have revenues without
profits. Therefore this statement might be true but misleading.

After Jan and Feb CPQ must have believed a miracle
would happen in March.
I like corporations that make miracles happen...not wait
for them.

Whether the way they dealt with this problem comes from
wrongful actions or ineptitude is unimportant.
The net result is they have lost credibility and thus
affected our investment portfolio. (directly and/or indirectly)

It will be interesting to see who gives answers.

With a better understanding of Pfeiffer and Mason
we might have seen this coming.

I dislike when potential is misused and goes to waste!
1. CPQ as a corp
2. CPQ stock in a Bull Market driven by techs
