Best to you, too. It's been quite a ride, but now it's over (except for the inevitable class-action).

LOL!!! I am going to miss you guys' sense of humor. I did call this buyout on a previous post. Kudo's to me!

Maybe we can regroup on the Oracle thread?

The only question is whether this investment will bear fruit. I think IBM would have been a better buyer.

It looks likes 10x annual royalties on IP ($600m), so all Ellison has to do is cut losses or jettison anything that's too unlikely to fit, or find real synergy. That's why ORCL has bounced strong. That's why any change-of-control costs are easily handled.

Oracle is experienced. They had that with PeopleSoft.
