We were testing NNM8, just to see if the product was going in the right direction. I believe that its going in the right direction, but NNM will not be ready for what we need until 2009. We will have to stick to the older version, which is somewhat annoying. We have to rearchitect our environment, and HP is going to help us do that without charging us. I'm happy they are being supportive, and I look forward to making a solution. Precision POC is going well, product is good and solid. I'm afraid of the pricetag, and it's probably a non-starter until some of our company changes occur in the next quarter. Then it may be a real possibility we can execute on.
