Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Oracle VS. DB2
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.
