Thanks, Dog... Excellent coverage... let's hope that the momentum playing institutions catch on to the inherent value in CPQ. I like ROsen... his communications to the employees also seemed genuine, although not as substantive as your notes. I wonder what form "execution" will take, any ideas or suggestions? Doug

Hi Rudedog, Why do you think it took Rosen so long to act? Re:<<...and that the problems over the last few years were the result of a failure to execute, a failure to pull together key pieces, and a loss of focus on the key business issues which will make CPQ successful. He spoke several times about "excessive bureaucracy" and the resulting inability to make quick decisions as a major factor.>> Seems to me that some action should have been taken quite some time ago. JMO Are you sure that Rosen isn't just a great "salesman". Stock Bull
