>see mercury interactive.... gee, thanks for the "tip," dave. but could you be a bit more nebulous? <vbg> as usual, i'm a little slow on the uptake ... i scoped out the fine print; MERQ says they expect to be set 'til 2007(!)? uh, i guess you're not going anywhere. (fwiw, CMVT indicates that the Israeli government shortened the tax-moratorium period for "Approved Enterprises" from four years to two years; however, this change won't effect the tax status of projects that were eligible for the moratorium prior to 1997, but will apply to subsequent "Approved Enterprises." yeah, i'm still not clear why [our] Uncle Sam couldn't bring down the hammer ... ?) but back to the current event at hand, is it just me or were revs simply explosive -- by CMVT's standards -- this quarter? thought i'd make myself useful for a change: sequential sequential qtr GMs increase revenues growth Q4 FY99 62.56% +0.08% $240,589 8.46% Q3 FY99 62.48 +0.26 221,814 5.99 Q2 FY99 62.22 +0.84 209,280 4.38 Q1 FY99 61.38 +0.92 200,507 - Q4 FY98 60.46 +0.30 Q3 FY98 60.16 +0.61 Q2 FY98 59.55 +0.59 Q1 FY98 58.96 - might as well update the head to head while i'm at it too: YTD CMVT +41.5% LUzer -12.1 btw, anyone got any feedback on Wireless 2000 in Nawlins? i hope Kobi was at least twirling a double-bladed lightsaber in the booth cuz i heard that Michael "My time's worth $600,000 an hour" Saylor and MicroStrategy, (er, strategy.com), picked up three Wappy Awards. whoopy! -chris.

what? do i got toilet paper hanging out the back of my pants? booger on my nose? i feel like a leper on this board. speaking of getting neglected, i figure that since bookmarking the MERQ SI thread is like being a wallflower at a mute cocktail party (hey, what would the Yahoo! equivalent be?), i could at least post a notion or two over here. i heard some ASP subsidiary/hosted-solution talk was leaked out of FogCity (Analyst 2000). are we talking IPO here? and what's up with this nod to Intel: "Mercury Inside?" care to share some of that straight dope? uh oh, looks like we got cited by the mo-mo-rons. gooroo pick o' the day: siliconinvestor.com
