When the Oracle's purchase of Sun first came out,  I could see why
they would want some of the software, but I couldn't understand what
they were going to do with the hardware.  (Or the low cost software.)
 It was after I heard
an "ad" on NPR radio that I decided that Oracle wants to be the new
IBM.  The place you can go to get all of your enterprise IT problems
solved.   Software/Hardware/Integration.  All in house.  Just write a
LARGE check.   If I'm right, we can expect less and less concern for
price sensitive customers and more and more integration of in-house
technologies.   Interoperability will probably suffer as well.  Just
my two cents...
