They cut next q's expectation in half..., I bailed at
12.25. I really thought they would beat their lowered
expectation, but things aren't looking good, imo. The
trend is not your friend here, unless you're short.

Fundamentally, my 'feel' is that uis will have a lot more
competition with web-related software than they have had with
the enterprise stuff.

Earlier in the year I bought uis and prgs thinking they
would hedge each other somewhat. uis being more traditional
and prgs being a play on the asp space. Well I'm in the
red on prgs too, but at least they're not warning, and then
missing the lowered numbers!!!..., at least yet.

ps. this market is going to make traders of us all.
pps. I'll consider getting back in toward the fall.., but
probably not until there is actual evidence of orders
picking up. at this point, I expect next q's release
to push out the turnaround even farther.
