I agree with your dead money thoughts. It amazed me at Parametric to see the number of analysts who jumped on board after the company had already run up 10 to 15 fold. The risk of ODI going lower is very minimal, and the upside potential if OODBMS can eat into the RDBMS world is huge. I don't pretend to understand the entire competitive advantage ODI has from a technical basis, but I do like what I hear is going on in the sales environment.

Regarding ''dead money''... Why don't you call Charles Wang and tell him that his latest move with the Jasmine ODBMS is just dead money?? I'm sure you'll make him laugh all the day!

Now, back to the Sunny side of the HOODINI story:

Note that we're dealing with a $48M investment... Mark, can we still use your 5-10% ratio to find out ODIS' $-share in the project? After all, it seems to be a 1,000 license package.
