Internal memo to all FBN executives:

One of our many Beta sites, a large multi-national conglomerate, while testing the results of the FBN2000 code remediation process, was kind enough to send me the following quotes ...

"Hey! This stuff is really great! We tested every one of our 5,000 plus programs. Every one of them executed exactly as they did prior to the remediation. There is absolutely zero performance degradation with FBN's proprietary windowing capability, uniquely named "French Door". Why, it's like nothing at all was done to our code. It's utterly amazing. And, it only took 17 minutes for the whole process. It would have been quicker, but we started during the nightly backup procedure. Everything runs slow during backups."

"Our production parallel tests worked beautifully. There were absolutely no problems found. Everything works just like it used to. If I didn't know better, I'd think that I was still running the same code!"

"I don't know how they did it, but the source code now doesn't take up any more space than it did before. With all the changes, I would have expected more disk space to be used. This must have something to do with that proprietary FBN-Bigitization feature. This is phenomenal!"

Now, if we can just get him to pay us before he tests his stuff with a date in the next century, we'll get away clean. Fortunately, we didn't mess up any of his code while we were doing nothing to it.

Just thought I'd keep you guys up to date. We're looking good!
