Wow. Sorry to be hogging this part of the thread, but I just dug out of the 10-Q that for the past year, ORCL only generated 38% of revenue from licenses; the rest was services. On a 6 BB year, that's about 2.2 BB in licenses, and a lot of those are in applications. Figure their DBMS license business is about $1.2 BB. IFMX is about .5 BB. Not such an unobtainable goal to beat ORCL as I thought...
