Now, what about those complimentary developer kits? -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Easter, David Sent: Friday, July 25, 2008 8:15 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Buy vs. Build There is an entire track at UserWorld dedicated to just AR System: http://www.bmc.com/userworld/miami/agenda/Tracks_and_Sessions.html "BMC Atrium IIII: Enabling Technologies BMC Remedy AR System - this track will take you beyond the vast, out-of-the-box functionality and enable you to leverage your existing BMC Remedy Action Request System investment in a way that you have not know before.

No mention of the ARS product only OOTB products listed. I was planning to go but NOW I don't see the value in going and am finding it VERY hard to justify the trip to management.

This has some implications in terms of active development in the product lines and other things. Also, Microsoft has deep pockets. http://www.gengaming.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=608&mode=threaded Can BMC weather the storm? Is bankruptcy an option? Seems like Microsoft got into some hot water over its licensing practices. Is this a healthy image or a good place to be in? http://www.aaxnet.com/topics/slicense.html Seems like there were problems as well: http://news.cnet.com/Vista-views-Microsofts-license-changes/2009-1016_3- 6126885.html Not advocating anything, just running the cards of the unspoken sides. Much of everything is in a trap, to varying degrees, just trying to drop all premonitions and have an open view of all sides.
