Your comparison of Revenue is not an apple to apple comparison. ORCL has a lot of revenue from application. Actually application also drives the DB sales. SYBS and IFMX rely more on other SW vendors' application sales, so their revenue will always be much smaller. But no question that ORCL is the leader as they have shown growth. All of these companies are really worried about MSFT not each other. MSFT wants to replace UNIX with NT. It won't happen at least for a few years but longer term ORCl, SYBS and IFMX all may run into problems if MSFT is successful with NT.
