Post by: spiros on 20 Jun, 2005, 22:39:58
Here is what I received in my email today...

At SDL, we have always believed that our customers are the most important asset to our business, which is why we have such a strong focus on customer service and regular customer communications. As such, we want you to be the first to hear about our exciting news.

The two leading translation technology companies in the industry are about to become one. SDL has announced its intention to acquire TRADOS and its successful family of products to create a truly dedicated technology industry leader. SDL will now be better able to serve the globalization ecosystem - the strong relationship among all players in the translation process - bound by a common technology. We will also continue to apply our core values of extremely high standards for customer service and support across our entire product line.

So what does this mean for you? First, we will be able to provide you with more valuable and powerful solutions that continue to be cost-effective, and continue to enable you to be more productive. Not only will the merger lead to more innovative products, but we will also be able to provide them to you at a lower total cost of ownership.
 
Our research and development efforts and distribution channels can now be shared, leading to significant economies of scale and a less fragmented market, from which translators, language service providers and corporations are certain to benefit. You will have the support and strength of a $150 million company with extensive resources, dedicated to ensuring that you receive technology that is easy to use, powerful and more cost-effective.
