IBM. HWP (who bought Verifone last year - we were all waiting for the other shoe to drop), amoung others. One thing about the whole digital id concept is the idea of a 'trusted third party'. Would Oracle or Sun like the administrator of their digital ids to be owned by MSFT? I doubt RealNetworks would like it either (hehe). So, yes, a purchase other than by the P.O. is not highly likely at this point - but you never know! As a spin-off of RSA and Security Dynamics (Bidzos runs VS, in case you don't know) VS is probably right where it should be at the moment. - Jerry
