- It should take them 6 months to figure out what they have (furniture, bodies,
- liabilities, equipment). They may have an idea on where they want to go
- with it, but I doubt it is well thought out and will probably change in 6 months.

- see superficial changes on the outside. This is my observation of typical
- stupid mergers. Look at the Borland takeover of Ashton-Tate.
