>>what's your take on CMRC & ARBA?

Ariba is one of my largest holdings. I missed the CMRC gravy train but I thank them as that GM announcement (along with the Ford/Oracle deal) catalyzed the Fortune 1000 into checking out this B2B thing. I own ITWO as well. I am positive on CMRC as well but I think I have enough exposure to ecommerce.

>>To what extent is having ERP expertise (such as as SAP) an advantage compared to CMRC & ARBA?

I think its actually a disadvantage. Having a legacy mindset in an economy where the rules have changed is baggage. I expect SAP to overcome this disadvantage and do ok in a booming industry, similar to how Oracle did ok, but not fantastically, in ERP apps.
