TD, It wouldn't surprise me at all to see PSFT expand into this area. In order to sustain their current growth rate they will have to do it by either expanding the market for their current products (e.g. their creation of the middle market division0 or by adding additional products which would in this case probably be done through acquisition. Wouldn't surprise me at all to find out they have already started evaluating this as an option and are considering the pros and cons of their alternatives. Melissa
