HP is handing it out to Oracle in the non x86 server space & Oracle badly need to make the Hardware, Software Complete strategy work or the SUN acquisition is a disaster. Killing all your enterprise software lines for your competition and trash talking their future makes compelling sense from where Oracle are right now.
