Maybe we should cut and paste a few messages from the Sebl thread to the Msft thread and see if we get any takers.

>> So, anyone know what Microsoft is actually going to do with the Siebel product, how many seats etc?

This one if Balmer's baby. They are calling it Project Missouri. I guess when Steve was announcing it internally he was dancing around yelling "show me the money" (isn't it 1998?). The goal is to replace 3 of their biggest internal apps. According to my source, this is a big deal. Thousands of seats. MSFT is currently staffing up 100 heads to support this deal. He didn't know all the units being Siebelized.

Disclaimer: I don't have millions of dollars worth of SEBL stock, but have been long an amount equal to what Steve Farber spends in a weekend for a couple of years.
