H,

>>I was quite disappointed to see a few vitriolic posts against the man on this thread. Agreed, he lost sight of the ball in recent times which certainly made me angry too. (I followed the stock down...) But the last seven years has seen CPQ grow from a 2-bit operation into one of the major players in this market under his guidance.

Very good point!!! Let us not forget that CPQ's stock price was in the low 20's at the time EP took over, and was about the same when he left. In the period he was at the helm, a cumulative 15:1 stock spit occurred, which I, and I imagine a few others, rudedog included, have quite enjoyed.
