Yocam agrees. ''I believe a real turnaround takes eight to 10 quarters.

Is it just me, or is time expanding? <g> I swear it was eight before.

Shane, (or Del?) Re: >"''We just need to help people understand that this is a different company from the Borland of old,'' he said."<

I think the perception is not just, "Oh their the same old Borland". But "Well, MicroSoft beat them as Borland and it will probably beat them again as Inprise"

Now how do they plan to paradigm that perception?

Or am I misunderstanding that MicroSoft is not a middleware competitor?

Shane, one more question. Would IBM, ORCL and CA all be competitors to INPR(Inprise)?
