It said Ellison told the newspaper that Oracle wanted to sell a full range of software that, like Microsoft, included both operating system and applications.

"I'd like to have a complete stack," Ellison was quoted as saying.

"We're missing an operating system. You could argue that it makes a lot of sense for us to look at distributing and supporting Linux."


Could be interesting.  I wonder how much they would pay for Novell?

I believe truth and principle do matter. If you have to sacrifice them to get the results you want, then the results aren't worth it.
