shane,

This is about ORCL, but the following statement about ERP caught my
attention.:
.......

It was, however, the slump in sales of Oracle's
enterprise-resource planning (ERP) applications that
unnerved the market more. Applications may today
account for only 20% of Oracle's revenues, but they
are vital to its future. The ERP market is booming.
Last year the four leading ERP companies-SAP
(which dominates with 61% of the market), Oracle
(15%), Baan and PeopleSoft (both 12%)-saw

something Oracle can ill afford.

I think it will be awhile before the institutional interest in BORL perks up. This
stock should be viewed as a long term investment or gamble depending on one's
outlook and tolerance of risk. My guess is the new coverage will come to the party
a day too late and several dollars too short.



As of 03/06/98,
Institutional ownership (3 months) is 47.85 % out of 38.34 mil
outstanding shares.

Once BORL stays over $10, BORL'll get more attention from institutions
because it'll be marginable. It's very important to stay marginable for
some investors.

SHORT INTEREST:
Current Month (Mil) 3.70
Previous Month (Mil) 4.27
Short Interest Ratio (Days) 7.41
