Peter: If Yahoo info is correct, sounds like Scott Smith was right when he said MSFDC would sign up with Integrion/CKFR for back end processing. If this pans out, it could be BIGGGGGG. Good work. Charlie

PHILADELPHIA and REDMOND, Wash., April 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrion Financial Network and Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq: MSFT - news) today announced plans to jointly develop a connection between consumers using Microsoft(R) Money personal financial management software and Integrion's Interactive Financial Services (IFS) platform. For the planned fall release of Money 99, the companies will develop server technology that translates Open Financial Exchange (OFX) messages into GOLD Standard messages. The solution is scheduled to be available at the end of this year for Integrion banks that offer Money 99 to their consumers. Going forward, both organizations plan to conform their products to the new converged industry message standard announced last week by the Banking Industry Technology Secretariat (BITS). This initiative expands the existing relationship between Integrion and Microsoft. Integrion currently supports Money 98 and prior versions of the software on the Visa Interactive banking platform, which Integrion acquired in August 1997. Peter you wanted to know what I thought about this release? Means this, first...Money 98 and prior versions interface with IFS. Second, Money 99 will too. Nothing but a public service announcement to current IFS banks who give their customers Money..that their world is not comming to an end when Money 99 is released this fall....non-event.
