What are you trying to say? HYSL should capitalize software? The fact that Arbor didn't have any capitalized software on the balance sheet and Hyperion didn't have very much is a positive for investors. I would guess that when Hyperion Solutions takes a merger charge in the upcoming quarter they will write off all of Hyperion's capitalized software, in order to clean up the balance sheet, although it is already pretty good. I personally would rather short stocks with a lot of capitalized software and buy stocks with very little -- for obvious reasons. Reg, good luck buying stocks with a lot of capitalized software, I don't recommend this strategy, but if it works for you go for it. Secondly, Goldman Sachs IPO has absolutely nothing to do with what their research analysts are going to say about the individual companies that they cover. This is a very respected firm, they are not going to soil their reputation because they are doing an IPO that will "sell itself."
