Bipin, I agree that is what Ray did say. Larry contradicted him by saying that the sales reorg but essentially "buttoned up". He said that in response to a question whether the reorg would have ongoing effects on conversion. By the way I noted no comments on Larry's seeming undercutting of Ray during the cc. One notable example was Larry discussing new efficiencies and saying, "I shouldn't even say this but..." and then going on to point out that each division had its own marketing org. At one point he said "Can you believe that." Well, gee I thought it was Larry's company, yet he sounded like an outsider who came in to clean up a mess left by previous management. Except Ray is in effect the previous management. Difficult for me not to believe Ray wasn't internally fuming. Perhaps a false impression on my part but I can't help but think Ray is still not long for ORCL. Rich
