Oracle Booming
As if Larry Ellison,
owner
of America's largest yacht, didn't already have enough money, his company
goes out and
increases
revenue by 27 percent and profits by 35 percent in its latest quarter.
It turns out the $20 billion Ellison shelled out to buy a bunch of high-end
software companies was money well-spent.
What's really interesting is that Oracle is becoming less and less of a database
company, and more and more an enterprise application vendor. But what really
makes me happy is that Larry has finally stopped mouthing off about Bill Gates!
