"But I don't think Oracle crossed any ethical boundaries that any other software companies wouldn't have crossed,"

Pretty classic defense... Translation: "Ya, we did some unethical stuff... But everyone does it..."

Echoes of Bill Clinton...

on Friday said the discounts in the state's contract were very deep -- so deep, in fact, that there was a debate within the company as to whether it really wanted to book such a transaction.

93 million for 270,000 seats. That's $344 per seat over ten years, assume two major upgrades. IMHO an outragous gouge for the database, the apps are less then worthless and I don't think this covered it anyhow.

Do they think division is beyond us?
