When Oracle acquired Sun in 2010, then I thought it would provide leverage for Oracle when competing with SAP. Whereas SAP comes to the party with their enterprise management applications and consulting products, Oracle could now additionally provide server hardware, operating system and database products. It seems strange to me that Oracle would abandon an operating system, when this is a feature of its product suite advantage over SAP. Maybe they have found that Linux runs better on Sun servers and is cheaper ;-) cheers, Ian. ________________________________
