We ... http://media.alticorblogs.com/2008/03/10/mis-leader/ Happy to report to you that the Nitro case in Missouri has been dismissed by a federal judge.

Our colleagues at Quixtar would agree. We hope our North American customers will, as well. And for you Web 2.0 nuts, Code Review is a great blog to weigh in ... http://media.alticorblogs.com/2007/11/08/simply-quixtar/ After being on the defensive for 20 straight legal attacks, we filed suit yesterday against the corporation that owns TEAM.
