Ramsey WOW! Great find.

Avery, Director of HP Sales, has an area code of 281. That is Houston.
Houston is HWP's strategic center for engineering and product development.
HWP has a huge presence in Houston as well as Texas as a whole. It is
partly the result of the Compaq and EDS acquisitions.

I think this pretty much nails it as far as some sort of major agreement with
HWP. Wave wouldn't have hired someone like Avery unless things pretty much
'done'. Of course, I need to qualify this sentiment (especially on this board!) by
saying that it isn't a 100% done deal because we don't have anything in black&white
and signed etc etc etc. But all reasonable people would agree that this is a pretty
decent signal that the HWP deal is de facto 'done'. Just my opinion.

Also, I still think Wave is going to be prominent in cloud computing. Foam's DD
today (Intel TXT) points to that eventuality. DELL's PowerEdge servers will have
Wave software included at some level. Just my opinion.
