MM: Right on. According to an IDC(International Data Corp) report published in the springof 1997 that tracked the leading 1996 application software vendors sales results, #1 SAP grew its sales results by 32% over 1995, #2 Oracle by 51% and #3 PSFT by 90%. PSFT continues to gain ground on both SAP and Oracle for leadership in the application software marketplace. Additionally, PSFT is the only ERP provider, based on their inclusion of the Red Pepper technology, who is incorporating DSS (decision Support Systems) in their applications. Some pretty bright folks see DSS as the next hot software play.
