Joe, for the record, VMW's market cap is 2.5 bigger than Salesforce.com's :)

i.e. 25B vs. 10B for sf.com.

Oh, and at the end of 2007, VMW was worth... 50B!

Salesforce is a S&P top 500 firm; not sure how "big" VMWare is financially, but it's hard to imagine them being as big as Salesforce even though they have penetration in 100%...]]> Wed, 28 Apr 2010 12:16:52 -0400 Wed, 28 Apr 2010 12:16:52 -0400 Wed, 28 Apr 2010 12:16:52 -0400 Apr 28, 2010 Joseph Ottinger 5
