The PC is over the top, Ballmer talks the MSFT stockprice down. Sun attacking their biggest cash-cow Office with Star-Office. And hotmail running on Sun hard- and software.
So far the good news!
The Oracle Applications System Bundle 1.0 includes Oracle Financials, Oracle Manufacturing, Oracle Human Resources, Oracle Supply Chain Management, and Oracle Projects, and will be available simultaneously for Compaq Tru64 Unix, Hewlett-Packard HP/UX, IBM AIX, Sun Solaris, and Windows NT.
Compaq first mentioned, Windows NT last. A coincidence?
Where is Windows2000?
What Raw Iron really meant is a trend towards 'tailor-made' OS. And what has Microsoft to offer. The all-in-one-whether-you-like- it-or-not-against-hugh-cost Windows2000.
I just realized this weekend that Windows2000 already is an obsolete product before even launching. The trend is tailor-made OS. Linux, Raw Iron and so on.
Thus, no Windows2000 needed in the server-arena. Losing the Pc was the good news. Also losing the business-server arena is the real bad news.
Comments?
No intention for bashing. Just trying to clear up things.
