Oracle Eyes Partnership With Dell, Compaq, Hewlett-Packard

TOKYO (Nikkei)--Oracle Corp. hopes to create a partnership with Dell Computer Corp., Compaq Computer Corp. and Hewlett-Packard Co., Oracle Chairman Larry Ellison said here Wednesday. The company announced Monday a tie-up with Sun Microsystems Inc.

Ellison's comments appeared aimed at emphasizing Oracle's plan to form alliances to fight Microsoft Corp. for dominance of the computer market. Oracle is a leading proponent of network computing, under which users activate applications software via the Internet from servers running a Sun Microsystems operating system. Network computing could replace the current convention of independent PCs running Microsoft Windows, according to Oracle.

Nobody has offered me a centralized internet identity that I can use in Internet commerce! I would love to see it --- a free site that you can log onto with some fingerprint type security access, where you can obtain a shopping token to use in Internet commerce. A site where none of the information can be used for anything other than obtaining shopping and payment tokens.

Sorry, Paul. I don't get it. Are you saying that there is no place for enterprise products and an enterprise market separate from the consumer market?
