Red Hat Inc's executive vice president of worldwide sales, Alex Pinchev, has dismissed the impact that Oracle Corp's entry into the Linux support business could have on Red Hat, insisting Oracle does not really know what it is doing.

That's a dangerous attitude to have if you ask me.....maybe that is how he'll counter what Oracle is doing, but it's never a good idea to underestimate anyone anymore.

having had past experiences with Oracle... I agree. They may not know what they are doing now.... But 2 years down the road? that is another story.

Ive worked enough with Oracle support on Oracle to know there is *no* way I would want to go through them for Apache, OpenLdap, CVS, or the hundreds of apps Red Hat supports. Hell have you seen the install path for 'their' apache? Its buried so well its harder to find than Hoffa..
