Hi Ibexx I have some information about SAP services in Singapore. I am not sure whether SAP is offering the same kind of services other part of the World. May be this is a pilot project and would to like to test it. This is how it works SAP, KPMG and Singapore Network Services (Local network service provider) joined together and offering Bureau services to Small and medium customer, who does not have to invest a penny in hardware and software. The hardware will be provided by the SNS (Server, PC, Maintenance etc...), Software will be by SAP and implementation assitance from KPMG. The company just uses the services by number of users starting from minimum users say could be 10 to n. There will be a flat fee charged by the service on a yearly basis by SAP to serviced company for a fee per user (Vanila installation, customization extra!)per year. Minimum period of contract is 2 or 3 years and after that customer have option to buy the software if required. (The reason is a company might start with 10 user and may expand to 100 user with in 3 years due to business expansion, then viable option is to have their own setup). This way SAP lock the small and medium enterprise customer and customer also enjoy their benefits of SAP. I will get more information on success of this project later!. If the project become a successful then there is huge market out there for SAP through out the world. I do not think any other ERP vendor currently have this kind approach. I am just watching SAP at Yahoo bid 131.This is kind of stock where one can buy at any level. kalyan
