I have been reading other bloggers sites and I find it interesting that many seem to think the market cap of PTC is just based on its turnover. There is so much more to this depending on who is going to make a pitch as to what they will get out of picking through the bones, or running the company as it is.2 h+ h$ @! d+ c/ c
6 h/ I) t5 i0 T- [For Autodesk, a deal of this magnitude, if it goes wrong could sink the company (we are facing global recession at the minute) and PTC was, in fact, a fine warning as to what could happen when you buy big.

Maybe some investors will see that there's a way to buy it and grow it and make a profit but the buyout from EDS for UGS/SDRC just ladened the company with debt and was sold on to Siemens.
