Hi, Matt, I appreciate you hands on hdwr/sfwr guys/gals info re: UNIX platforms and scaleability probs. Helps us who trade charts to understand some of the squiggles/gyrations in our medium. Question, if I may... What % of the AS400 mkt does SSA claim they have if I've labelled the non-UNIX platforms correctly? Seem's like a Support line drawn in the sand @$9 FWIW... I'd like t'buy $4s like that other fella who's started buying here(g) Usually a hard break like this is followed by a sideways, very tradeable pattern while excess "inventory" is resorbed into mkt... Drive's longs nuts, but makes money for short-term folks... Just some of my thoughtful contributions to discussion here. Good Investing! O/49r

Matt, Thanks for helping us out with that. Let's hope they cure their Unix problems as that market represents good expansion possibilities for SSAX. Today looks like another downer for the stock. I'm wishing I'd held back on my purchases last week, but we all know how hindsight works. I noticed Robt. Stephens decreased their estimate for fiscal year ending 10/98 from $0.60 to $0.53 on 12/11/97 and decreased their estimate for quarter ending 10/98 from $0.27 to $0.25 on 12/11/97. I'd been thinking that we'd see analysts rein in their estimates some with all the difficulty that's going on over in SE Asia. Regards, James
