Innuit- Thanks. As the article says, this was a well known event. It was talked about in the Q3 CC as a, "non-event." MSFT was supposed to promote the Citrix solution as their technology of choice for non-Windows clients. But in reality they did little, to nothing, anyway. As a matter of fact, I even question how big of a market this is for CTXS products. But it is clear that MSFT can go after this market too. But as your article says, is MSFT motivated to write for non-Windows platforms? I was a little more concerned about the article (that Zed posted) that said MSFT is free to give away RDP clients upon expiration of the marketing agreement. But your article never even brings that issue up. Anyway, I'm confused. I'm sure CTXS will post something on their website soon about it. As far as the stock price gyrations, who knows? I've never been able to figure that out. MikeM(From Florida)
