Now Gartenberg of Gartner Group just said on CNBC that what they said about 25% of customers having some problems with W2K was just "business as usual", normal, samo samo as with any other brand new thing. A Bear Stearns guy, also interviewed by CNBC said, 'put it this way, 75% of customers would be happy.' That's good. Bear Stearns guy looking for 120 -130 bucks on the stock, when asked. The CNBC guy also said 'what's the big deal, bug fixes coming in June, right?' Botom line is that the Gartner guy was backpedaling and the Bear Stearns guy was bullish! Much ado about nothing. Tony

Nice interview on CNBC with a Gartner Group analyst and a Bear Stearns analyst. What was the big deal??? Both these guys were positive. So what if 1/4 have some problems. Implementing is never that smooth. Bear Stearns analyst stated that the feedback he has received is very good on this product. He also stated it is not unusual to see these types of problems. After listening to both of these guys, I believe those buying today got the bargain of the year!! BTW--Any surprise it is bouncing back. What a deal. I got my options that I would have passed on if the stock stayed in the 106+ range.
