The ASIA currency debacle is short term. What worries me is the long term implications of a shift from the main frame/ORACLE type systems to MSFT/NT. Any reason to hope this fundamental shift WONT take place over the LONG TERM?

I think people have to look at the "License" revenue sequential growth of 21.62% (the market will be impressed (great acceptance of their new product Oracle 8). If you add back the effect of currency you get five ($.05) cents added to EPS (tax effected and everything). Very positive.

I think you will find the bloodshed not bad at all.
