No,  there is already a thread on that...  and to summarize... I WISH!
I don't know...  I wish....   My guess is over 200 mil   and under
500... but I have ZERO clue.  I wish I knew...

 

I wish Tim would tell us... ;)    Being Mr. Tim M. would tell us now
that he is Mr. I just made tons of cash!  J    Congrats Tim.... And for
those of you who do not know, Tim is the guy who wrote the Softricity
Sequencer...  Or the first one...

I don't suppose anyone has any insight as to how much Softricity is
being bought for eh?? 

 

Anyone want to bet on the size of the deal? J

This is NOT the end of Softricity technology or products but the end of
a company called Softricity.  If everything is approved then Softricity
becomes part of Microsoft.    

 

No it is not, "to get it out of the way"    Microsoft is taking the
entire company.  Not just tabling it.  This is actually a really good
thing for everyone...

Someone here asked... Is this the end of Softtricity?  Is Microsoft just
buying Softtricity out... to get it out of the way of their upcoming
virtualization server product line.

 

I've seen Microsoft use the "If you can't beat 'em, buy em!" mentality.

        Hello All,  

         

        This is not a newsletter but this is HUGE and I wanted to let
you all know as soon as it was official...

         

        Microsoft Acquires Softricity Application Virtualization Company

         

        Will this Result in a Paradigm Shift in How We Manage and Deploy
Applications in the Future?

         

        May 22, 2006, Today Microsoft announced they will buy
application virtualization software provider Softricity.  Softricity are
the pioneers of the on-demand virtual application computing model for
application management and deployment.  For those of you new Softricity,
their SoftGrid solution changes the paradigm of how applications are run
and managed, through true virtualization of the application. Their
solution allows for applications to be completely insulated from the
operating system and from each other...

         

        Read the entire article and look in to the future of Windows
with me... I also want to know what you think about this... Post your
comments below the article and let's all discuss this.  This is really
huge!!
