Cruft
I'm pulling the following bits out of the rewrite for now because I haven't been able to make sense of what is being said, and I am unable to verify what I can work out is being said.
- The company reached an agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to pay $225 million in compensation to shareholders.
- SEC, FBI, and Deputy Attorney General James Comey (head of the Bush Administration's Corporate Fraud Task Force)
- It was the world's third-largest independent software company with approximately 16,000 employees, and a 1999 IndustryWeek 1000 company.

Acquisition / Product Offering Consolidation
CA's acquisition of Concord gives it new products and technologies, namely eHealth and SPECTRUM. I'm still not sure if they plan on folding some of the tech from SPECTRUM / eHealth into the existing Unicenter product line, or if the will continue to exist as a separate product. CA does still appear to be selling SPECTRUM as a standalone product at this point in time. Tel Janin 03:18, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
Charles Wang
I had always heard that Charles Wang's last name was actually pronounced Wong and that if you were applying there and messed that fact up you were immediatly disqualified. Anyone else hear that or have a source? Sabalon 14:21, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
- Charles Wang's last name is actually pronounced "Wong," but I don't think they "immediately disqualify" you if you mispronounce it during an interview. Charles himself would correct you. It should be noted that Charles HATES to be called "Charlie," though.
"Where software goes to die"
I've heard this expression around the software industry - but don't know if it's appropriate for the article, etc. Suggestions? --64.252.38.171 03:20, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
