It would be really nice if any "strategic" platform decisions by Oracle actually lasted for more than two years. Getting boring, all this switcheroo...

Has it ever downed on the marketing idiots that companies who use their products do not like to have the rug pulled from under their feet every second year or every time Larry decides to do a purge?

Having said that, quite frankly the Linux story with 2.6 kernel and 64-bit is nothing short of a joke... Received on Fri Nov 25 2005 - 15:58:23 CST
