Cost to set up an intranet? Depends on how many seats you're talking about. It could e a couple hundred thousand o millions. We're building one right now that could takea year and will definitely cost a couple of million. There are others that are just simple Lotus or Exchange rollouts with a simple infrastructure...So that's kind of an impossible question to answer. HOWEVER, for intranets the size of what we're talking about here, with these applications built in and all of that custom development....We're talking millions, with consulting fees and custom development going on for years...These are LARGE projects, people, with worldwide implications. If this is all for real, this company could end up developing and deploying some of the most intricate applications on some of the largest intranets out there. I can't even begin to guess about the potential of these projects except to say that we're talking in the tens of millions PER PROJECT, if it were my company doing the building, and several years worth of work, all the while billing time and materials...just an amazing amount of DOUGH, folks....and HIGHLY profitable....I'm in almost the same business (broader market, but much less technology), and you would gasp at the profits involved. That's why I'm here, gambling on FTNT... PA
