Gosh, that's swell. Let's look at this in context: "BankOne Corp, one of America's largest bank holding companies" is going to buy $10 million of Microsoft software and services per year for the next three years, some unknown part of which will have something to do with .Net. We don't know if that means that they're getting $9 million of .Net and $1 million of services, or $9,999,985 of tech support services and a $15 .Net baseball cap. But it doesn't really matter. Let's suppose it's a real legitimate $10 million. Take that annual $10 million and think just how it will affect the top and bottom lines of MSFT, a company with one of the highest market valuations in the entire world. It's a fraction of a hundredth of a percent of their market cap. Color me whelmed. Dave
