RE: Oracle Announces The Same Enterprise Class Support For Linux As For Its Database

what is this all about ?  

1. Antother Larry genious move that costs Oracle Corps lots of energy for nuts (remember the DB that will replace the windows network and store all docs and object or the PC without disk)
2. a ninth full scale ultimate declaration of total war on M$ at the moment they release the new version their OS

Anyway, the number and quality of this move is impressive.

Sounds like Mandrake Linux 5.2.
