"The expiration of the ICA technology and marketing agreement doesn't seem to have been discussed here." Hectorite, Yes, the marketing agreement was discussed. I discussed it, oh about 5 months ago? Somewhere around then. I knew all about the November 1999 expiration. But as I mentioned, it really didn't matter because MSFT did very little to help out CTXS anyway. As a matter of fact, I may have posted a scathing article along these lines. At least I meant too. So the first expiration is a non-event IMHO. BTW, the article was from Network World. Maybe you can find it on their website. Now the second agreement, set to expire in September 2001, is so far off in tech time, I'm not sure if it means anything now. Who knows what CTXS is going to be up to then <VBG>. Sometimes we have troubling figuring out what they are going to be doing 3 months from now. It gets pretty funny at times. I don't believe (at least since I've been on the thread) that the September 2001 expiration has ever been discussed. HTH, MikeM(From Florida) PS1 There was some real fluff in Q2's CC concerning MSFT's relationship status. I think I mentioned what was said in my summary of the CC. I got a big kick out of what was said, which was basically nothing. It kind of went along the lines of, "Our relationship with Microsoft is SOLID because I said so." PS2 If you are new to CTXS, it's really both a simple company to understand, and frustratingly difficult to understand. I don't think I've run across anything like it before...But no one ever argues two things. The top line and the bottom line.
