http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/business/20070727-1503-bn27trial.html In a nutshell, this is what happened: - the books were cooked - Peregrine snatched Tivoli Service Desk - Peregrine killed Tivoli Service Desk - Peregrine snatched Remedy - Peregrine tried to kill ARS - ... - ... - HP acquired Peregrine Take a look at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peregrine_Systems -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) on behalf of Shellman, David Sent: Fri 06/26/09 12:55 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: History of AR System Sachin, BMC didn't take over Peregrine (oh bad word, such a bad word). Remedy was sold to Peregrine. Peregrine sold Remedy to BMC and declared bankruptcy the next day (October/November 2002?). Peregrine emerged from bankruptcy and were around for a little while before being swallowed up by HP.
