So, WEBSPHERE increased 22%, and we seen Information Management
increased 28%, but still no direct reference to Informix. For all
we know it could have had nothing to do with Informix.

Informix: Prove it. Show me the money.

Otherwise I'll have no choice but to conclude that Guy is whispering
nothing but gossip, and pure, unadulterated, sycophant bull***.

Guy you're a liar and a gossip unless you can show some PROOF, get it?
It's all lies!

Curious that the name or likeness thereof "Informix" to be found nowhere
in the actual press release/report that Mr Bowerman pointed to.

I saw other brands represented but did not see any mention or use of the
word "[Ii]nformix", [Dd]ata, 'IDS','ID' --unless perhaps I'm looking at a
different report? : http://www.ibm.com/investor/4q06/4q06earnings.phtml .

"For the WebSphere family of software products, which facilitate customers'
ability to manage a wide variety of business processes using open standards
to interconnect applications, data and operating systems, revenues increased
22 percent. Revenues for Information Management software, which enables
clients to leverage information on demand, increased 28 percent. Revenues
from Tivoli software, infrastructure software that enables customers to
centrally manage networks including security and storage capability,
increased 25 percent, and revenues for Lotus software, which allows
collaborating and messaging by customers in real-time communication and
knowledge management, increased 30 percent year over year. Revenues from
Rational software, integrated tools to improve the processes of software
development, increased 12 percent compared with the year-ago quarter."

Informix is a product, or more accurately range of products, within the
Information Management brand. (Which "enables clients to leverage
information on demand" :-))))))
