All companies will eventually die. I'm not writing Oracle off, as they don't care about innovation at all. They care about those governmental and corporate contracts that innovative companies shun.

The world is big enough for both to exist.

Actually you're right. I shouldn't say die.

Oracle will fade into obscurity sooner. Like Tivoli or Lotus or Sun.

Absolutely. I am sure their goal is to be another IBM. The less they have to spend on stuff such as R&D the better.

Or IBM?
