This is a bigger WTF? than 1989 when CA bought the ADR pieces that I think
AT&T owned.

We had just signed up for ADR-Datacom/DB and IDEAL and we were used to the
CA way of not doing things. Looking back CA managed to keep the best ADR
guys and lots of them are still there.

Over the years they also swallowed Pansophic, Platinum, the IDMS guys
(Cullinane/Cullinet?) and lots of others. Not sure what happened to Goal
Systems, they had some good stuff too.

I probably missed hundreds but the ones dear to my career didn't bite too
much. (apart from a court case we lost, LOL).
