I know all Co.'s look for new revenue business, but is this really necessary or good?
For a customer running Oracle & Linux simply as a base for some other software product (that was the real purchase) this might not be bad. But when will Oracle Corp. learn how much Linux has done for them by staying out of the way? Fragmenting and diluting the Linux market only helps MS and Apple, not Oracle.

As someone said in another thread..."this to shall pass".

PS Thanks for the link...was an interesting read.
