One thing that is probably affecting the stock today is the article that appears in the WSJ re: TCI choosing SUNW and MSFT to supply system software for set top boxes. The artcle specifically mentions MSFDC and First data targeting bill presentment and payment. Just a thought as to why it could be down. IMHO, CKFR is much better positioned to work with the banks and therefore, the bank's customers.

>>>By the way, I see Excite! held steady today. So you're still looking good on that one. Just so you know...I'm biased on that one...my cost is below zero. I just wanted to maybe give you a different way to look at that particular company....It's Market Cap is fraction of Yahoo!s and has 25% of the US Web users 'drive by' on a regular basis. IMO it will hit 40 and beyond before Checkfree....it is very...very...very...thin. I used most my Excite profits to establish my Checkfree position. And my Intuit profits to create positions in E Trade & @Home. I have been either very lucky or just ahead of the crowd.
