Don't you guys think you're splitting a mess of techie hairs? Nobody seems able to put OTEXF into layman's language, including the Company. I bought OTEXF as an IPO because they had the best search engine in the business. This thing will search just about any file in any language... and do it fast. Ford likes OTEXF for exactly that reason. No need to convert files left over from 1960. For exactly the same reason, OTEXF is building a massive, loyal customer base. Do you think anyone is going to knock them out of the market with bells and whistles? The core technology mitigates towards an incremental increase in sales... and profits. On the other hand, some people believe the world is flat.

i got the dso and a/r "stuff" from comments from the midland walwyn analyst that were passed on to me. don't think they had a conference call. yes, the stock has been a bit weak. so has pc docs, yet both announced good results last week. there seems to be a bit of a liquidity problem.... no buyers! i suspect that until the overall market conditions improve the stock price for both pc docs and open text will languish! having said that, i don't lose any sleep holding either company.
