- Funny you should mention it. Like other Sybase customers, we sometimes
- get calls from people thinking of buying the product. I just had a call
- the other day and told the person at the other end that though Sybase
- was a good product (with compiled procs, triggers, etc), make sure to
- watch out for the contact fee. As he was from a small company, I wonder
- if he is going to become a customer? I kind of doubt it.
