Birmingham City Council chose Oracle, went broke because of it ;)

Heh Heh Heh.  This is pretty funny:

   "Birmingham City Council, the largest local authority in Europe, has
    declared itself in financial distress after troubled Oracle project
    costs ballooned from £20 million to around £100 million ($125.5 
million)."

Wonder if they'll make the smart choice next time around, and choose PG
+ a decent vendor instead? :)
