My thoughts exactly. I was wondering about that too. It's always good to have a growing customer base though. Makes for more revenue to be generated from support, upgrades, training (a la the recently announced "BusinessObject Personal Trainer" that's priced at $150 per user), etc. Also, I like the sound of this part: IBM and Business Objects Demonstrate Tight Partnership The partnership between Business Objects and IBM played an important role in the decision to use Business Objects solutions at PSA Peugeot Citro‰n. IBM and Business Objects can point to several examples of their partnership, where Business Objects' tight integration with IBM's Visual Warehouse and DB2 have been successful in the banking, finance, and insurance industries. Shall we contemplate a takeover by IBM?? Ahmed
