Duel Flashback:
Compaq

Six months ago we powered up a Compaq <% if gsSubBrand = "aolsnapshot" then Response.Write("(NYSE: CPQ)") else Response.Write("(NYSE: CPQ)") end if %> Duel. Our bout over the prospects of the leading computer maker was not a floppy one. Chris Rugaber, in his Dueling Fools debut, and veteran duelist Louis Corrigan took up the debate.

In the end, our voters sided with the bullish Chris. Beginner's luck? With shares of Compaq rising 27% over the next six months, Chris was off to an excellent Dueling Fools start.

Victory? Chris Rugaber and our Voting Fools. Congrats!
