Yes, and I'm really sorry about that...and I won't do it again :-( I am fortunate enough to have good job opportunities as an Oracle DBA where I am, but also realize that could change really fast...it's why I try to at least understand how "the others" work but focus on thoroughly knowing what's in demand for now. I understand in some ways where you guys are coming from. Larry is one mean SOB, and has a real "nice" reputation ... hehehe. But, in all honesty one doesn't make it in this business by being a nice guy, and unfortunately that's the way it is. Of course one doesn't always make it in this business by having a great product either (which I do believe Oracle has a really good product, compared to most of what's out there) On his behalf tho, at least Larry didn't "steal" a product like MicroSoft did with SQL Server. (uh, Sybase) :-)) mars1972@my-deja.com wrote: > In article <390F0022.93730E81@yahoo.com>, > Nikita <Nikita@yahoo.com> wrote: > > :-). > > Hey, at least you understand I was just poking fun here.
