Sure, big ones. People often forget that Oracle, like Novell, is and always has been a business targeting a big market - not caring particularly what that market is.
In the late '70's it was SQL, the govt. database language standard. In '90 or '91 Oracle was bending over backwards trying to be object-oriented, and in the last year or so we've been hearing MultiMedia product demos and strategic agreements... Maybe they're going to build The Information Highway :-)
