Delta deal looks big. Might give FORE opportunity to recognize revenue early and assure meeting expected quarter numbers. Should be a good day IMHO.

FORE's technology enables the Shoah Foundation to distribute over 100,000 hours of digitized video testimonials to historical and educational institutions worldwide. Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation, founded and chaired by Steven Spielberg, was established in 1994 to videotape and archive interviews with Holocaust survivors and eyewitnesses all over the world. Interviews are catalogued and archived using digital technology. Initially, five separate repositories are to be linked to the Foundation's Archive by private fiber- optic lines.
