So the next WSJ headline will presumably be "Ellison shocked by the defecatory habits of woodland-dwelling bears"? :rolleyes:Quote:
The point Ellison seems to be trying to hammer home is that HP is overpaying for Autonomy.
Everyone knows that HP over paid for Autonomy and it - along with the farcical way PSG was mis-spun - was the reason that LA got his marching orders.
What amuses me is that "St Larry" should be so hacked off by it - as Scott B points out, if one of your competitors "screws the pooch" then surely that's an occasion for some well-deserved mirth and finger-pointing? Leads me to wonder if maybe LA's purchase of Autonomy wasn't as coyote-crazy as I first thought.
Wonder if we'll see HP continue Autonomy's shirt sponsorship of Spurs football club (http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news...my-080710.html)?
As a Spurs fan I can confirm the sponsorship works. As soon as I saw Autonomy on the shirt I had an irresistible urge to buy some unstructured database products.Quote:
