Magic Software has developed a new and innovative solution and opened new opportunities for SAP Business One. They have allowed our customers to gain additional value from their SAP solutions more quickly and efficiently.

With SAP Business One and be.as we have a very comprehensive and cost effective solution in place.

If (software companies) stand to gain additional business, and if customers are feeling a pain that the solution addresses, then the ecosystem occurs naturally. If the market doesn't really want the stack, it could cost about US$50 million to US$100 million a year.

I think that they're clearly right to be moving into this business-to-business software solutions area. We're seeing so much activity in that area; a lot of the Y2K spending is moving into commerce-related initiatives, security-related initiatives. It's an area where Microsoft has not been doing so well as they've been trying to get [Windows 2000] out, and Novell needs to position itself strongly from the directory and security infrastructure standpoint.

The small business infrastructure remains the engine of growth for many of the cities and small towns badly damaged by last year's hurricanes. With the dedicated teamwork of our local partners, SAP hopes to enable business processes at affected small businesses, allowing them to rebuild today while planning for long-term prosperity.
