I can continue to remain in awe of Larry Ellison's ability to piss people
off, get away with it, and even PROSPER from his actions. If I do something
even remotely stupid, I'm either in the dog house or in jail with a steep
fine.
Must be great to be a 1 percenter ! Still, I'm glad they got back at
him...for they "knew" he was not going to grow OpenOffice much. Larry buys
entities only for the purpose of eliminating competition. Everyone knows
that.
Whereas Steve Jobs may have been the most revered executive in the tech
world, Larry has got to be the most hated.
Sorry for the weekend "soap box" rant.
