Oracle and Sun
I want to give an update on what is happening on the Sun/Oracle front since Oracle published the first advertisement in the Wall Street Journal beginning of September. There have been more very clear and strong public commitments to Sun since then expressed through Oracle's direct advertising in the Wall Street Journal and The Economist, joint partner announcements such as the Sun Oracle Database Machine, and most recently through compelling keynotes and announcements at Oracle OpenWorld.
You can also watch Scott McNealy’s keynote with Larry Ellison from Oracle OpenWorld here. This covers the commitment and strengths both companies bring to the table for customers. Scott details his pride in Sun and our employees’ great innovations, and Larry highlights the competitive power of the Sun/Oracle combination and proves that Oracle and Sun are faster than IBM.
But most importantly we got more definitive messaging on product plans. Have a look at this new overview and FAQ on the Oracle and Sun transaction that elaborates on product plans after the transaction closes and highlights the benefits that the combined companies expect to deliver, including each a paragraph on MySQL, OpenSource and OpenOffice! Make sure to regularly visit Sun.com/Oracle for further updates.

Why is McNealy doing all the public appearances now? What's happened to Schwartz?
