Hello to the posters on the Yahoo! MSG Board! I see you guys are going thru the SEC stuff....I like that too! Just one correction on Intuit, they got 12.6 Million shares of Checkfree for Intuit Services Corp[ISC]. They then sold 2 Million to get below 20%. Probably picked up 20Million or so in Cash on those 2 Million shares. Since then Checkfree has paid 20 Million in License Fees to Intuit for links to Quicken. Then follow this......Intuit dumped 40 Million into Excite for nearly a 20% interest. Question is.......What do you think about that for Cash Flow Investing? Smooth move or what?

TQR: Good detective work re Genesis. The success of this project is key to CKFR's future and has been little discussed here. You note CKFR may be developing Genesis in COBOL and DB2 and say: < I sure wouldn't choose this platform (if I had a choice)> For those of us who are not familiar with database technology and mainframe computer languages, could you say a little about why these would be poor choices for CKFR? Anybody from CKFR care to chime in on this? Finally, I had the impression from Pete Kight's conference call that they had already moved a block of transactions onto Genesis from one of the other platforms. Columbus? But he went over it pretty quickly and I may have been confused. Is Genesis already a reality?
