 * Delete nn company google search just shows business listing sites and a couple of trade shows they've attended. I'd also be willing to vote delete for ICAP/4 there only prduct as far as I can tell. --Pboyd04 23:01, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep they are a well-established company (20 years in operation) and can claim that "75% of the Fortune 500 electronics, aerospace, and computer companies own Intusoft products". I have no personal ties with Intusoft, other than the recognition of their powerful product that is well-used by people within the EE industry.--Bovineone 07:52, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Intusoft is very well known in the EDA industry and has more than 24000 hits on google alone. Also Mentor Graphics is a very large EDA company that makes use of Intusoft's underlying ICAP/4 simulation engine in their own products. 71.130.8.132 23:26, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep WP:NOT: "Articles about companies and products are fine if they are written in an objective and unbiased style... articles about very small 'garage' companies are not likely to be acceptable." It seems the issue here is our confusion of "garage" and "niche." --Lucent 09:24, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per Lucent & any tech company being around for >20 years is notable in itself, plus their fortune 500 customer list. Perhaps expand a bit though.  Dbchip 17:58, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
