Charles - FYI the fastest growing component of SAP's business is on the MSFT stack, with CPQ as the primary provider. CPQ has 6 customer labs devoted to SAP sizing and configuration. That business represents the majority of SAP revenue as well as thhe largest growth segment. Their Unix business is heavily biased to HP, who had done similar configuration work in the past in the Unix space and at one point had nearly 70% of the installed SAP base. By comparison, CPQ went from 20% of the installed base in 1995 to over 60% today. Sun has had only a small presence in that market.
