Thanks for the post on Siebel, Mike. I own it because of you. It is one of four in my G&K portfolio that is back in the green today.

One small tid-bit of info: if the company had reported just $35 million more in revenue it would have topped $1 billion in trailing revenue for the first time in the company's history. Not bad. Next quarter the company will blow well past that benchmark.

Mike:

Siebel Systems Inc., a maker of customer-service software,
said on Tuesday it agreed to buy closely held OpenSite Inc.
for about $500 million in stock to add Internet auction software


CRM software products and auction site operator - how do
you mix the two ? Is this to satisfy a particular market
segment's needs, or does it mean auctions will become more
mainstream in future (based on their access to so many
bigwigs' shopping lists.)
