Why you don't want IBM marketing Informix

Posted in 2008

Summary

Obnoxio The Clown and Fernando Nunes swapped YouTube links about IBM marketing, joking that Informix marketing by IBM would be scary or embarrassing. Fernando added that a 2008 IBM Oracle-compatibility message came after DA Morgan said IDS already covered those features. Humorous exchange with no technical content.
