Since when Oracle only in Databases???
Have you forgotten IBM with DB2/UDB or Sybase. You have to know that here around New York Stcock Exchange in any financial company Oracle is non-existent. Only UDB/DB2 and Sybase count. Thats restricted area for Oracle wink

The may be in some banks outside, but not here. They make to pharmaceutical companies in this area ONLY.

And to add to that, the current trend is to go UDB in financial world. So Oracle would have hard time here... in particular having really hard time with poor, propritary Java tools.

ERP? I agree, that's SAP only, but watch IBM in that area.
