Errr...well, I read an article about Larry and Oracle from some business
magazine. Basically, Larry was in a sailboat race, and had a near death
experience. So when he came back, he decided to live life to the fullest.
He started stripping power from execs, wanting to make the call on
everything at the company. So with Larry making all the calls, what is the
point in Ray staying? Now where did I put those SQL Server manuals?!?!?!?!

Yup. Seems to me the worst thing that has happened to Oracle is when Ray
Lane quit. Now Larry is a loose cannon.

Time will tell. But it appears that Larry burned quite a few bridges in the
past few months. Those third party Oracle apps(SAP, Peoplesoft, etc) were
bringing in easy money for Oracle. Building up the applications side of
Oracle is a good thing, but you dont jump up on the highest pedstal, beat
your chest and insult your, direct or in-direct, partners...like I said,
time will tell.
