Certainly there would be som interest here ar TRW Financial...
but as we never know if we want something till we need it on a project, that's
not a guarantee that we'd use it..
Certainly the Wind River stuff we use is the backbone of our systems
and we are always looking at better ways of utilising it with
the resources we have around..
