Compaq CPQ -- Let's Change the Name to FATPIG.COM
An SI Board Since February 1999
Posts SubjectMarks Bans
25 0 0
Emcee:  Jimbo Cobb Type:  Unmoderated
Introduction Compact
A lot of CPQ shareholders are disgusted with the performance of this hog over the past 2 years. Although it is a solid company, it has lagged the performance of DELL, GTW, INTC, IBM, MSFT, and most other big-name stocks in the computer industry.

If shareholders band together and try to get a shareholders resolution on the proxy statement to change the name of the company to FATPIG.COM maybe management will finally get serious about trying to create some shareholder value here instead of just creating a big directionless company with no hope of fat shareholder returns.

Let's bombard CPQ headquarters with requests to change the name to FATPIG.COM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jimbo.
