: It is the fastest web server in the market

Looks like the market doesn't really care. ORCL has a whopping 7.9% of the app server market behind BEAS, IBM, and SUNW.

In my opinion, Larry's been jumping on every hot buzzword that comes along: network computers (how'd that work out, by the way??), b2b, asp, and who knows what else. ORCL is simply too late to the application server market which is already locked up by BEAS and IBM (who also have scalable, Java-standard app servers which can be bought in a variety of configurations). ORCL should simply stick to what they do best: relational databases.
