It must be since Oracle is much more than just a database company. Apparently someone has forgotten about their applications line, design and development tools, and services component.

I think it is more likely that Microsoft will enter a rapid decline in the next 5 to 10 years as Linux takes the desktop market. What is holding Linux back is the integrated office application suite to displace Office 97. Anyone want to get rich quick like Bill? Write the apps for Linux!
