My belief is that there is an accumulative effect to news regarding the addition of clients. I remember watching ABOV release press earlier in the year. They would release news consistently every 2 or 3 days. The movement movement seemed to grow with each release rather than according to perceived value of the client (except DCLK). (Terrible explanation) Another way: A release of deal with MSFT alone pushes some (say 4%), a release of a deal with XYZ alone pushes it the same (1%). But the two announced several days apart pushes it 10%. Maybe it reflects the value of diversified client base, maybe just notion that it takes people awhile to catch on -- Dunno. But I believe the MSFT news will be further digested and be responsible more gains as other announcements stand on this announcement's shoulders. At least, that's what I'd like to think. Best of luck to all. <OT> P.S. Thanks for the warm reception of my earlier post. Wasn't sure if it was the right thing to do. Jason -- nice to see you are still here too. I never see you on any other boards -- seems like I would. Later
