...ORCL is reselling JBuilder...My statement stands - I was correct...

Delighted to hear it, Shane. As you know, from a commercial (i.e. revenue to Borland) point of view, there is a significant difference between reselling a product, and incorporating licensed code into a different product.

So let me get this straight: Oracle is reselling JBuilder (i.e. buying it from Borland, then reselling it as-is to its customers), rather than selling its own product that incorporates JBuilder code, and has a JBuilder look-and-feel?

The difference between the first and second situations is probably in the region of 5x, in revenue terms.....
