Yes, I believe another $1M cash. Also - there's the Sabratek deal which is looking good and although I hate to use this wording (because the shorts love to tear it up) but I believe there's been a few other deals in which the purchasers didn't want to allow their names to be used in a press release.

If one was to go back into my posts from last year you'd find one or two hints of Lucent being a major customer but we never saw a release on that - funny that it finally had to show up in pages 4 & 5 of this federal document: ionet.net

This I can say - shouldn't be too much longer until we deploy it at our main office and three key outer offices. It won't be any huge sale but when it was determined after we reviewed all the other options and found that we could save ~$6,900/month in hard money by deploying just a 8 ports of BT at each office it was certainly something that was added to the annual budget. I somehow doubt we're going to stop at 8 ports per location either so we're starting with a 24-port server with just one 8-port modem card which can easily be expanded to 24 ports by adding two more cards.

In addition we've got the IBM rep & the Pinnacle rep wanting it for their sales team as well as the E&Y people that seem to be ever-present auditing the place and interest has been expressed by the people that dominate most of the three building high-rise complex that we occupy three floors of.

Tell you what - when we deploy and Data Race has the check in the bank we'll certainly try to get a good press release worked out that explains exactly how it's saving us money. While it may not be the best choice for every company it's a perfect fit for this corporation due to the way their business operates. It also fits the others to a tee.
