Hey Larry, don't knock the cloud.
I made woopie with my wife, she said I was lousy.
I told her, But dear, that was Cloud Woopie".
She said, "Wow, that was the best woopie I've ever had!"

32:30 = "MySQL and Oracle do not compete at all."

GHENGIS KHAN TRANSLATION:
"Since I will kill you and rape your village, we will not compete at all. Problem solved! Peace in our time!"

Google tells us we don't need software anymore.
Oracle tells us we don't need "cloud computing" anymore.
And Microsoft tells we don't need Google or Oracle anymore.
God help us.

Ellison is afraid of cloud computing, plain and simple.  His business model is built on software licenses, hefty maintenance charges, and customer lock-in. Cloud disrupts all of this, and Ellison knows this...

Larry Ellison, inventor of the world's first database, is definitely spot on here. Cloud computing is nothing more than a stupid buzz word.

I think he spooked Zander a bit who chose not to let him elaborate when finally got to his real answer which was that cloud is a business model rather than a technology.

I appreciated the insight on the Sun acquisition, but I really enjoy the response to the question on Cloud Computing. Laughed my ass off.
