What makes a NT-LU merger feasible is based:

1) Similar corporate culture of management.

2) Support of installed base for systems all North American standards.

3) Most of the installed base are in the North American region.

Compare that with the -last year's aborted ALA/LU-:

1) Dissimilar corporate culture

2) Two distinct systems North American and European.

3) Installed base dispersed.

4) Firings of redundant staff difficult, Which organization is going to shrink? France or US?

NT-LU would be a much more focused company.

They weren't my comments! As my post noted, they are _elmatador's_ thoughts, which I brought over here to elicit comments.
