>>I will take the 100 shares off your hands for $16, heck, even $18<< Ramsey, how about I sell you 100 shares of WIND at 18? <g> Jeez, can you believe this Larry Ellison? He just pushed Liberate out of the nest and now he's talking about starting another network computer company... Oracle Plans New Company to Manufacture Low-Cost Computers By Brian Louis, Staff Reporter, 7/28/99 4:34 PM ET thestreet.com Excerpt: Oracle (ORCL:Nasdaq) CEO Larry Ellison told a crowd of analysts visiting his firm today that the No. 2 software maker is setting up a new company that will make a cheap desktop computer. The 64 MHz Intel (INTC:Nasdaq)-based machines will run on Linux operating software -- a product that has emerged as an alternative to Microsoft's (MSFT:Nasdaq) ubiquitous Windows software -- and use Netscape's Internet browser as well as "100% Oracle software," Ellison said. Ellison, a longtime archrival of Microsoft CEO Bill Gates, said the new desktop would cost $150 without a monitor and $250 with one. "This thing with a monitor costs less than a copy of Microsoft Office," he said. He declined to give further details.
