Unbreakable? Yeah...in a vacuum.

I remember when Orcale first came out with the Unbreakable campaign...basically, to make the system unbreakable as per Oracle's marketing one would never even be able to use the system.

Heck, an unpatched NT 4.0 box stuck in a locked closet without a network connection will amazingly also be "unbreakable". May blue screen a lot, but certainly won't be breakable.

Larry (and his entourage) need to really focus n security IMMEDIATELY and not ignore this or people (especially government and state agencies) are going to be easily swayed in the direction of SQL, DB2, MySQL, or anything other than Oracle (and at a significant cost savings to boot).
