Mark, Yeah!, I saw this article earlier today. Is this a deal ala Intel, where PTEC absorbs the costs of all technical resources and support functions and gets very little in return ? Hope one of our resident experts (Jules are you listening ) will ask for additional details at the conference post earnings conference call. On the surface it seems like a great deal and that the demise of SYSF and the acquisition of AWRD is starting to pay-off Ahmad

To Jack Kay and Laurent Gharda, Do you think just once you could announce what these deals will mean to Phoenix's bottom line? This Investor is getting frustrated reading positive press releases from Phoenix which somehow never show up in increased profitability. Regards Jules "Phoenix Technologies™ Ltd. (Nasdaq:PTEC - news), the global leader in foundation and connectivity IP software, and National Semiconductor Corp. (NYSE:NSM - news) today announced a far-reaching strategic relationship whereby the two companies will jointly work on advanced technologies to minimize the time-to-deployment of next-generation National Semiconductor products.
