>>My only point in referring to Windows was that plenty of people seem to be investing in a company whose flagship product is traditionally a bug-filled mess. That's all.<< OK, let's assume for the sake of argument that Windows is a piece of trash. I'm talking about Oracle, not Windows. I want to know where Oracle quality and future trend stands, not MSFT's Window. That's my point. Also, as far a standard's goes, I think one could say that MSFT Windows is a semi-standard because of the quantity of people who use it. It doesn't make it a good standard, but at least it's been accepted to a degree, and as an investor, that's important to me. Oracle database also is a standard by way of how many enterprises use the software package. But they cater to the large enterprises who have lots of money to spend and that's only a small subset of the "potential future market". joe
