<< HOW, OH HOW COULD CPQ HAVE BLOWN IT SO BADLY??>>

Good Question...It takes the right business model, culture, management, and execution to consistently succeed. IMHO, you may would better off if you cut your CPQ shares loose and jumped on the DELL train. DELL could easily set new highs LONG before CPQ. I am not as patient as I used to be as an individual investor. I concentrate my bets on firms that can DELIVER for ALL stakeholders.

Good Luck Investing.

Regards,

Scott

EL,
Oh, no. Go ahead and post. It's better to vent it.
You can even refer to Eckhart as "Blowhardt"...or Bullfarht.
