Network Engines (NENG) Update

Posted on August 14, 2006

For interested investors in NENG, who might be worried about the company´s reliance on Microsoft security products, we think the following articles, regarding Microsoft´s acquisition of Whale Communications and  the expected release of ISA 2006, will be of interest.

Click Here to learn about ISA Server 2006, a key component of the NENG Investment Thesis.

Some things to think about: Will NENG make the appliances based on Whale´s software? Don´t some of the statements in the last press release from Microsoft sound very similar to the planned managed branch offering of Getronics and NENG?

And a final quote from Microsoft: "We are also working with our OEM partners to release an updated Whale
and Microsoft ISA Server 2006 appliance, which we plan to bring to
market in early 2007. At the same time, we will be integrating Whale
technologies into the next release of ISA Server itself (after ISA
Server 2006), with the intent to release shortly after Windows Server
codename “Longhorn.” This new release will fall under the new Microsoft
Forefront brand of security and secure-access solutions."
