Michelle, I'm forever eavesdropping on you at the PSFT thread. I am certainly with Jay and others that your insights are oh, so very welcome here at SAP A.G. Part of what I have tried to do with my investing is to understand as well as I can the companies that I am invested in (You see high tech is not exactly my expertise.). You and others have been so helpful to me in this regard. Welcome and Later. Sueponine.

> Whenever we have a platform shift (as is now occurring with the Unix to NT migration), there is some form of increased revenues to the application players. What you say makes sense. The migration to NT also means that SAP will have a shot at the middle tier, below the Fortune 1000 class of customers. Do you agree? >they want on the NT/Merced (aka "unix killer") platform ASAP (there might be a y2k component to this?). I don't know of any y2k component to NT migration from UNIX. The OS is certainly y2k compliant. If the apps have a problem, then it doesn't matter what OS they are on. No benefit to migrating to NT.
