RE: Metalink Response ....FYI

Speaking of cost-cutting, anyone have any idea when Oracle will bottom out on the stock market?

I am wondering whether now would be a good time to invest...

I think we are getting close to that now, but I say that every day lately and the stock seems to be dropping further every few days.
