Hi Dave, Well I probably wouldn't have bought artg if it weren't dirt cheap... but it is, so there you go. I'm working with some big companies now in IC strategy and it has become clear to me there is still room for some of these niche vendors specifically in storefront technology and i-payments. The ERP vendors have storefront offerings but there are some technological issues, for one thing storefronts tend to push the platform towards Java, and SAP and Oracle, Psft are not really core java offerings. So the tech team that supports say SAP in your org really can't take on the storefront implemenation easily. Thats one issue, also storefronts are still sexy tech because lots of shops are doing huge business on their storefronts. BTW I buy a bunch of stuff from one site: sierratradingpost.com, it is an outdoors discount site. Everytime I pull up the site with my browser (but don't buy anything) magically a few days later a catalog appears in the mail. Aside from the obvious privacy issues here, I wonder whos technology is tracking my cookies- is that netscreen, anybody know? thanks
