Dear Graeme:

I would like to extend my congratulations to you and your entire organization on recently being voted Microsoft Solution Provider Partner of the Year.

This honor is reserved for the Microsoft Solution Provider Partner organization that truly exemplifies the attributes we look for in out Partners - business and technology vision, revenue generation, professionalism, loyalty, commitment, and focus on staff training and certification.

Among several other things, I was pleased to learn of Praxa's ability to immediately drive business around the latest Microsoft products and technologies, including Microsoft Exchange Server and Microsoft Internet information Server. These products offer tremendous market opportunity for creative and dedicated Partners, and it is great to see Praxa aggressively pursuing this business.

Your organization should also be commended for its high degree of involvement in key regional and national associations, including your role in establishing the Australian Association of Microsoft Solution Providers.

It's a tribute to you that not only did Microsoft select Praxa as one of the three Partner of the Year finalists, but also that it was your peers - fellow Microsoft Solution Provider Partners - that ultimately selected your organization as the best of the best.

Thank you for all your hard work. Again, I offer my sincere congratulations.
