11/19   Sometimes I am thinking that three years from now we'll STILL
        be reading about Oracle's repeated PeopleSoft takekeover attempts.
        \_ isn't it wonderful how ellison has vowed to fire every
           peoplesoft employee.
           \_ Really?  That seems like a stupid way to take over a
              company.
                \_ isn't increasing shareholder value wonderful.
                   \_ It is when you're a shareholder.
           \_ Besides, this takeover is also extremely unpopular among
              peoplesoft customers (at least those who run it on non-Oracle DB)
              I think it is clear to every idiot that Oracle's intention is
              to eliminate peoplesoft as a competitor and then make peoplesoft
              users to switch to using Oracle's DB.
              \_ Didn't that Tim Curry impersonator jackass say as much?
              \_ as a PeopleSoft customer, I think destroying the company
                 sounds like a great idea.
