Agreed on the marketing side... the web tools do have the ability to create enough buzz to far exceed Progress marketing.

Their press releases aren't even smart enough to drop links so that they show up on other threads by listing customers or competitors. (MSFT,ORCL,YHOO,IBM)

At these levels any rumors as an aquisition target? With APPL's recent push into software, their cash reserves, and the new OS X (a juiced up Unix on Windows) and PRGS large share of embedded market for business apps -- It could make sense if APPL is ready to push into business market for their hardware. Suddenly their PCs would have a large field of business apps. -- just day dreaming, no facts
