$100M IPO For Data Warehousing's Netezza

Dreary Framingham MA's Netezza has filed for a $100M IPO. Netezza will trade on the Nasdaq under ticker symbol NTZA, with Credit Suisse and Morgan Stanley as co-lead underwriters. This is the 2nd IPO for CEO Jit Saxena, who was founder, chairman and CEO of CRM's Applix, which he took public in 1994. Interestingly, Motorola's Ed Zander is on the board, but we imagine he is too busy too notice the IPO.
