I was also in the camp for having SSP go it alone. But my opinion has changed since SFLK landed that deal with MSFT.
Worst case is I believe we are going to have a stellar second half of the year. I also believe we are a buyout target and I'm quite certain the MSFT news has placed us on alot more radar screens.
The fun over here makes up for the lack thereof with wavx - LOL!!
