I don't know why he was dropped from Sybase (or if he was)... but I'm sure it was just the transition from small company to big if he was asked to leave....

All I know is that sybase really gave Oracle a run for its money in the marketing dept... around 1991 I think, the perception was that Sybase was best of breed and Oracle was not... this was all created by Hoffman, imo - hes a great marketer. Its not like Oracle doesn't know how to sell after all.
