  1. MS, Oracle suxx0rz, rice b says. by rice_burners_suck · · Score: 0, Troll
    Nanny nanny boo boo.

    It was obvious from the beginning that Oracle would win this. Not that I'm on Oracle's side. Actually, I am quite opposed to Oracle.

    Oracle is the suxx0rz.

    This is because that dude who's in charge of Oracle wanted to do all kinds of evil things, like issue federal ID cards to everybody, and stuff like that. This is evil because it allows the government to track you and stuff. But he didn't care, because it would mean profits for his company.

    In other words, chip away at American freedoms by making it yet easier for the government to control you; all that for a little bit of temporary profits by one greedy corporation.

    That is why I *H*A*T*E* Oracle.

    Oracle is the suxx0rz.

    I was hoping that PeopleSoft would win this, not only to give Oracle the finger, but also to make sure that there is enough competition in the industry. If Oracle can buy everybody out, then it will have too much power as an organization. All we need is Oracle to buy all the database and business software vendors out there, and then Microsoft to buy Oracle, and that will mean that Microsoft will control our lives until we die.

    Microsoft is the suxx0rz, too.
