RE: WHEN WILL WE SEE PRICES IN THE 30's

TM, I agree, the Sabre deal has the potential to make this compnay. I have said for two years that they will only become successful if they get a real time booking engine online. However you are not 'using my logic' in the deductions you use in rest of your POST. I keep posting this info and as soon as people hear TT/SB deal in the pipeline it seems to be forgotten. The key word is 'Mission Critical Application'. Solarnet is NOT a mission critical application to it's customers. If SCS vanished, all that would happen to Sabre is that a number of Consolidators would no longer be available on their consolidator section, small dint in reputatiion but no more. Business risk in doing deals with SCS on these systems are very small, benefits are large, so they are relatively easy sales. TT/SB is different, you are wedding your companaies existence to that of SCS. Huge business risk, therefore much more difficult sell period, iffy balance sheet makes it worse. I work in this industry and I know there is no way any of my customers would touch a compnay like SCS for mission critical software. The bet for the bottle of Whisky was with Jet, I owe him if we get a TT/SB live before becoming profitable. I hope I lose it. I know the Sabre deal has revived discussions on some of these TT/SB deals. Having Sabre go live will help more, seeing large transactions, profitability, consolidators and other GDS's signing up will make a huge difference, should remove all but the most cautious persons reservations. I can't wait! Idle
