Here is a press release I received from a PLM company in Germany. I've left out the name, shown as [new name], as you will see why:
one name, one philosophy!
The consequent implementation of an integrated PDM/PLM strategy of the [new name] GmbH is presented more ever also in the name of the product. In this context and in the context of increasing internationalization [new name] GmbH Germany decided to switch the name of their product family from "[old name]" to "[new name]". With this step [new name] shows also optically the consequent development of key technologies in the PDM/PLM sector. Immediately the new product portfolio [new name] is ready to meet your requirements.
For more than 20 years we gain experiences in handling leading systems from 2D/3D CAD systems, document management and integrations to ERP systems. Thereby it was always the highest goal to integrate these systems to a uniform information infrastructure. Based on this experience the [new name] guarantees that you always carry out the correct step during the implementation of a PDM/PLM system at the correct time.
I wish they wouldn't employ on-line translators.
Well Ralph, it's a PLM press release, by now you should know they are specifically written to make no sense!!!

Refer them to me! After years of handling 'Janglish' press releases (auto-translated releases from Japanese to English) this is easy!
One recent gem I received reads as follows: "It hung by the result and the business reform that heard the voice on the site as the points Requirement "Everyone", "Spare it ..sparing..", and "Anywhere" of three it as for being able use that developed 3D."
Go discuss :)
