You have no idea what business PeopleSoft is in do you?
You have no idea what products MBS provide do you ?;-)
A couple of years ago they purchased a company in Denmark called "Navision Damgaard". That company is now a major part of MBS. They hold the two key-products "Navision Attain" and "Concorde Axapta". These products are not initially developed by Microsoft, and are stable, mature, and technologically quite reasonable products.
The sales of those products in the US are booming, even though the products are not very well known yet. The reason is, that even though I hold no special love for Bill Gates or Microsoft, I have to admit that the products from the former Navision Damgaard company actually are quite good.
Like it or not, but they actually have a decent chance at pulling this off. There are thousands of IT professionals in Europe with Navision/Axapta certifications who would love to go to the states for a couple of years, train others, complete a few projects, and make a small fortune. I am not one of them - but trust me... they will come...
They have two quite good products, which they purchased in Denmark, Scandinavia. The products are "Conorde Axapta", and Navision Attain. They were formely owned by the company "Navision Damgaard" which Microsoft purchased about two years ago.
Both products are mature and technologically reasonable goods products. They hold a market share of approx 70% of the total market in northern europe for such software.
I am not a fan of those products, but they actually contain long feature-lists and have many satisfied customers.
Navision Attain can not be considered an ERP platform - its more a "book keeping" application. Concorde Axapta contains features and functionality that compares with many other ERP systems, including SAP, Baan, and others.
With the new G-Mail concept, Google have shown the world that they are capable of storing TBs of data without too much trouble.
And it is not data that can be lost without problems (as suggested elsewhere) because we are talking about user-data! Not just search-engine index data.
Why don't you ask them how much an online storage area would cost? Other suggestions here run from 500 USD to many thousands of USD each year... plus the trouble of setting it up, keeping it safe, and paying the electrical bill;-)
How much online storage space can you buy from Google if you pay them 100 bucks a month? Give'em a call and ask...:-)

Resistance is futile
