Oracle just wants to freeload GNU/Linux _in its entirety_. When will it
actually give something back? Oh, that's right. Ellison's vocabulary is
missing the word "give". No wonder Olson ditched the company.

Of course! The personal competition between Gates and Ellison over who
was wealthiest has been written in a number of articles and books.

Here's an example of their dynamic, at least as it stood a decade ago:

http://www.networkworld.com/news/1216ellgates.html

Such digs on Gates are now a well-rehearsed Ellison soliloquy. In
keynote speeches, informal gatherings and private interviews, the
Oracle chief slips easily into long rants on what he sees as Gates'
quest to dominate everything Microsoft touches. One favorite Ellison
refrain is that Gates wants a world of "Microsoft English."

. . .

Disagreeing with a point Ellison made, Gates concluded that he would
"have to think about that," and abruptly hung up the phone. Over six
hours later, Gates called back and said he ultimately agreed with
Ellison and "continued the conversation as if nothing had even
happened," Ellison said, expressing his disbelief.

That Gates should spend half a day mulling over a minor point was a
"revelation" to Ellison, who realized that his erstwhile friend is
"a very unusual person." Moreover, Gates is "the most aggressive,
the most single-minded...the most ambitious person I have ever met
in my life," said Ellison, whose own personal fortune stands at
about $6 billion.

Again, a question: More ambitious than even Larry Ellison?

"I have hobbies. I do all sorts of ridiculous things," outside of
work, countered Ellison. Gates, whose "entire life is Microsoft"
would never consider hobbies enjoyed by Ellison, such as sailboat
racing and "reading books," said Ellison, the owner of a Machetti
Italian jet fighter and the richest citizen of "The Golden State."

. . .

Ellison laughed when asked if he plays Churchill to Gates' Fuhrer in
his own duel over who will dominate the computer industry.

So let's make sure we all understand this. Larry Ellison is a
multi-billionaire who founded and runs one of the largest software companies
in the world. He meets with and is friends with industry leaders and
powerful and influencial people.

You are a child that posts lies and spam from your dorm room 24 hours a day,
7 days a week. You've never actually had a job and have to leach off of
someone elses internet connection to post your crap.

Yet a unemployed moron like you thinks that you know more about the industry
than Larry Ellison.

Roy Schestowitz - An idiot amongst morons.

I'm sure that things like the penis size of men is something that Roy
Schestowitz has a personal interest in.
