CPQ has done more to harm the market than any other stock. What a poorly run company. I owned CPQ in 1997 and sold after 3 months for a small loss. The entire time DELL was ramping up through the stratosphere. I moved over to DELL, why don't you guys get off this sinking ship? Horrible management. Just paste CPQ's chart, DELL's and IBM's side by side and ask yourself one question, why am I wasting my time and money in this loser? DEC did not save CPQ and neither will AltaVista. Jump now and put your money elsewhere. A money market would give you a better return without all this angst. Bad form CPQ on the late warning. CPQ deserves everything it gets handed today. Why do they do this every year. Stuff the channel and then wait until Friday afternoon to warn. This happens so often it has become commonplace to expect it.
