Oracle's Infrastructure Now Fully Linux-ized
mbadolato writes "An article over at InformationWeek reports
Oracle is aggressively adopting Linux both internally and for its products, despite SCO Group's threats earlier this week that it may sue those who don't pay licensing fees to the company. Chuck Rozwat, an Oracle executive VP, says the company has moved its IT infrastructure to Linux, a year after CEO Larry Ellis issued the mandate. In the coming year, Oracle will move its base development platform to Linux, including putting the open-source operating system on the workstations of 8,000 developers"
STUPID!

The one thing Oracle had going for it is now gone. Prepare to be MS's bitch when Yukon, SQL 2003, arrives. Imagine writing stored proc's in C#... yeah baby
Face it you terrorists, Linux is illegal. Anyone caught using it after SCO wins their court case will be put into a FEMA concentration camp. You Linux users make the WTC attack look like jaywalking.

more proof the editors don't even read their own submissions. is this sloppiness supposed to entice me to subscribe?
we are the suckers for continuing to read a site the authors just don't take seriously.
Oracle has plans to discontinue its support for Linux by the end of 2005.
engine?
A. A jet engine eventually stops whining.
Why bother with IP infringing Linux?
As the US government continues its violent surge to the extreme right, no court will take the side of freedom when there is a buck to be made (by the people who already have the bucks) or a freedom to be destroyed (among the few remaining freedoms the lower classes still have).
Any Judge attempting to reestablish the concept of fair use will be ostracized by the political hierarchy. It would be the death of their career.
We have news for all you Linux people--Clinton is gone. The bums lost. We'd tell you to get a job, but since you refuse to conform and bow to your master you are useless as a slave and therefore have no value to the corporate oligarchy.
You will die lonely and afraid. Your females, your sisters and daughters (assuming you had even one), will be made whores once they have aged to the point when they are no longer desirable to us. We will sell them to immigrants and foreign powers, they will bear illegitimate bastard children and we will control them, too. We will take great satisfaction in this.
No more government handouts or unnecessary freedoms. Darwin was right, the strong dominate the weak and become stronger in the process. This is not a theory to us, it is a moral imperative, our mantra, that we dominate and control you. It is the path of history, it is your fate.
Microsoft is going to be on your computer and you will pay for and install the upgrades we demand or you can live in the wilderness with the other beasts. Should that be your choice, our controllers and catchers will hunt you down and render great justice upon you.
We will make you disappear, your ideals and beliefs relegated to the smallest footnote over time, eventually to disappear, while the glory of unhindered wealth, power and strength will shine as a beacon long into the future.
Accept this and die your well-deserved death, Linux fools. Everything you have will be taken to make us more powerful...it is our way and your destiny.
hope all the linux lovers here like indian food.
I'm not sure if someone already posted this before(it just came to my mind recently, I swear :), but here is it anyways:
SCO = Stupid Chief Officers
Another big corporation that gives lip service to open source but continues to sell their own closed software for big bucks. Ask them to open up Oracle for Linux and you'll find out exactly how they really feel about open source.
