I realize this is probably a terrible mistake to admit I don't know some of
these technical
terms, when I adverstise myself as an HP3000 Professional, but here goes anyway;

Clip from a recent posting on HP in PC magazine;

No self-respecting CEO or CFO can get
>together with his buddies unless he can talk about his ERP project.
>And, like it or not, SAP and Baan have won the war for mind share in
>ERP.

Now in my knowledge, ERP is the sound made when I guzzle my diet coke.  And I
always
thought a SAP was a person who bought IBM equipment (CEO and CFO, I have heard
of,
never met one, but have heard of).   So what the heck is ERP?

The surest way to mishandle a problem is to avoid facing up to it!

Is the glass half empty, half full, or twice as large as it needs to be?

Good judgement comes from experience and experience comes from bad judgement.
