    Larry Ellison used to believe that the future of computers will be terminals linked to great and huge servors and not PC.



    I am glad that his vision of the future of micro-informatic was bad, i like to be independant and not to be submitted to a huge server.

    I liked him for those couple of days when he was the most weathly man in the world... just cause it put Bill Gates in his place.

    This makes it possible for Larry to buy Apple. And AAPL is looking pretty ripe right now (&lt; 15). hmmm...

    Larry's bit too busy trying to right a couple of sinking ships to bother with Apple. I don't have anything against Larry really. No more than I do against any other egomaniacal CEO. It's that Bill Campbell that I want offed the Board.
