Over the next three years the ASP model will become more and more refined for the SME marketplace. You'll see more competition there from larger organizations and from accounting organizations. And therefore you'll see, I believe, an assault on this marketplace that is not just from technology venders but also from full-service companies that want to provide some of the consulting around accounting and business practices. And they will happen to have an ASP as part of their operation, or an ASP partner. We already have the Web hosting provider marketplace.
ASPs go a little bit higher up.
The exciting thing for industry is going to be the evolution of the business service-provider marketplace, where companies can electronically offer business services to others. Not only through the Web, but also through points of presence on a secure and reliable type of network. We think that there's a more compelling long-term business proposition for a Business Provider Marketplace, as opposed to only an Application Service Provider marketplace. Inc. All Rights Reserved.
