D Cao Its hard to pack one message with as many wrong statements as you have . " JAVA which never have been approved in the marketplace" - In 3 years Java has become the most popular computer language in the world - it has the backing of IBM, Oracle, Sun,Lotus and even Microsoft. Their are hundreds of startups building Java applications - how many startups are basing their business on a windows applications? " Do you know that total apps' revenue is about ten time of DB's" ??? DB revenue is higher than apps revenue at Oracle - what mearurements are you using???? " NSCP just drop the support for JAVA " This is false - Netscape is having some problems now but they are not dropping support for Java. "oracle's growth perspective lies on application not NC or JAVA" its wrong to look at these individually - Oracle's new applications for the web are a combination of Java and thin client computing. Any client, accessed anywhere, by anyone - that should open up a whole new market - Ray Lane said that applications are the #1 priority for Oracle so its not like you know something they dont.
