Has anyone on this list taken a real hard look at NetGravity's S1 that they
filed with the SEC to go public? My company uses the NetGravity software
and quite honestly, we paid more for the consulting and support fees than we
actually did for the software itself.

If you look at their recent filing, they make most of their money on
consulting and support. They are not really selling anymore of this
software and that concerns me because we feel as though we are stuck with
software that no one is using and we constantly are paying substandard support.

I recently read some articles in Red Herring and on CBSMarketwatch that
confirms this fear that my firm has.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how we can limit our costs to ad
serving? What other solutions should we look at for ad serving?
