Just a point on Developer 2000 - they have already incorporated Borland tools into their IDE: webweek.com So you'd better move fast! david

<Oracle will need a co-operation with Centura, to get Centura technology, otherwise this company is history (as current stock movement will show, lucky me to get out of this stock on right time)> Hi Veiko,I am so glad to hear you got out of Oracle in time,I was not surprised that it took such a big hit.And I agree whole-heartedly that Larry needs Centura,Oracle it is my understanding has dated Tech that must revitalized or,yes,they will be history. Now my problem is I am not a techie,but I read all that I can,and I get the general feeling that in spite of Centura's stock price they still have a relevant,competitive product and they have got into this situation due to years of mismanagement.So that much does depend on this new-regime.It would seem that if Borland can be selling at 9+ that there is discrepancy here that I can only see as investors having been "turned-off" by Centura,they simply fell out of favor and carry a stigma from the past that haunts the company(inclusive of terrible investor relations). FRom Veiko,Cathy,Robert,Leo and others have not ever got the feeling that CNTR has lanquished because a bad,dead product---and I have even noted a Gupta-ware newsgroup that is still rather active. So,can this new management turn this around?Max
