I just wanted to say that it seems Citrix ( GoTo...)actually do own both meeting.com and MyPC.com, as well as assist.com and webinar.com, both of which are also branded with the GoTo prefix. So at least they seem to understand this concept. ----answer---- Hi Mark, Thanks for pointing it out! Sahar Hi Sahar,

I wonder if the ASCII.com (English to most Americans) Stalwarts have any conception how badly names in Latin characters are going to fail the Radio test in Russia, China, Japan and the Arabic World. How will they even get on in India? The idea that most people in these countries are going to be able to pick up correct spelling of the names off the Radio just beggars belief. Most won't even get it if you spell it out to them. Interesting comments.
