Обсуждение: Oracle feeling some price pressure...

Folks,

I found this little gem:

<http://news.com.com/Oracle+lowers+price+for+some+multicore+chips/2100-1011_3-6002050.html>

The last paragraph is telling:

     "We believe that this latest round of price cuts may be
     indicative of pricing pressure Oracle is experiencing from
     low-cost database alternatives, such as Microsoft's newly
     released SQL Server 2005 and open-source offerings," Stimson
     said.

As Oracle isn't known for backing down, what do you think other
reactions than lowering their prices will be?

Cheers,
D
