Intelligent Enterprise Editor-in-Chief,
David Stodder, Identifies the 24 Most
Influential Companies in IT

SAN MATEO, Calif., Nov. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Finalists for the 1999
Intelligent Enterprise Dozen Awards were announced today by
Editor-in-Chief, David Stodder. These awards carry on the tradition of
the DATABASE Programming & Design Database Dozen Awards, emphasizing companies shaping the
''intelligent enterprise.'' Winners will be announced in the December 15th issue of Intelligent Enterprise.
Runners-up will be named ''Companies to Watch.''

Stodder stated, '''Better, faster, cheaper,' the mantra of technology vendors still drives product
development and marketing. But now a new word must be added: integrated. This year's Intelligent
Enterprise Dozen offers testament to the importance of application integration. Today, vendors find that
customers have the parts; now they want the whole. Best-of-breed products must adhere to industry
standards; packages must work together; and productivity tools, such as decision support, must
become closed-loop solutions.''

Yea, weekend before this last one. The mountains were so beautiful! Did my thing with my 19 year old daughter at Johnson Memorial....that's one way to keep the generations connected. Pike and Jefferson Co. are my two favorite places in the world. If you are an accountant I know we must know some of the same people. It's more fun to remain who we are on SI and the Web.

ATTENTION: I am now on topic.
Would someone please tell me when I am going to get out from under all this CPigQ water for once and for all?! Oh well, my portfolio is really cooking these days......if CPigQ ever gets going, well, I'll be pretty happy.
Later.
Sueponine.
