The following info from my latest Tech Republic e-newsletter (the one on 
Linux & life cycles of PCs)

There's also quite a few posts on the Tech Republic forums from people who 
are struggling to learn just exactly what ERP stands for (it is nice to see 
how far ahead of the curve we already are) ... vendors on BPCS_L might like 
to go there & mention that they are in the business of educating such 
beginners.

A prior thread on SSA woes produced http://www.gores.com

Do you want more URLs like the one in my other post? ,,, I have tried to use 
the ERP Super Site Forums without any success so far ... the interface makes 
OSG look wonderful by comparison, but none of them can hold a candle to the 
Midrange Trade Press Forums.
