I don't know if it's any cause for concern. Larry's a hot head, but he never seems to do any permanent damage. I can't see anyone leaving Sun just because Larry's got his knickers in a twist this week. Sun, HP and IBM all love Oracle, because they get to sell more hardware into Oracle sites. So I don't see any change in the status quo. And if Sun was going to get into bed with anyone, I doubt Informix would be the first choice.
