A cynical way to look at the decline in press releases post-shakeup is that press releases in the past were used as a smoke screen, the idea of flooding the wires with news to create an illusion of how CPQ was doing. Could be the powers that be at CPQ have decided to only make news releases if they have something significant, something really important to say.

BYW, that new printer CPQ announced in a news release in March, that was supposed to be available in April? Well, CompUSA is supposed to be one of the chains that carry the printer and when I went in two days ago, they still didn't have it.
