I remember being so sad when Oracle bought Sun. It was like EA buying a good studio and IP rights to great series.

That's going to be hard to do after they fired everyone. Probably outsourced patches to Mumbai. Doing the needful, and all that.

Oracle bought an evil and twisted corporation (Sun Microsystems) to get even more evil. Are they going to buy another big evil one too soon? Microsoft is a too big monster for them.

They were spreading FUD against Linux. Linux hit them hard in some areas, so they weren't playing fair. Linux conquered HPC, NASA replaced Solaris in favor of Linux and so on. There were more bad things about Sun, but it's an old story, so it's hard to remind everything now.
