Unlike other vendors, we have no lock-in.

I don't know what happens 5 or 10 years down the road.

We won't do the kind of announcement Siebel has done.

It looks great on PowerPoint, but on planet Earth, it won't fly. Salesforce.com is a CRM company. Marc is trying to make noise and buzz about something bigger, but that's all it is.

They didn't want to say up front, 'You're going to have to migrate from your software,' because those words would have created a tremor. Now it's been a year, and what they're saying is, We're not going to take that code, we're just going to take some of the ideas. You can't do automatic migrations because it's rewritten. If I'm looking at a whole new implementation, why is it going to Oracle?

We are standing behind what we say.
