Sure it is. So is everything we run on our computers, as well as the computers themselves. We don't run dBase II on CP/M anymore. The same way msql was replaced by MySQL, MySQL will be replaced by superior software at some point of the future.

Just don't bet on these guys.

And, BTW, isn't this the Maureen O'Gara that wrote that "exposé" about Groklaw?

Three banners stood out. One very annoying from Microsoft, two other banners from them and one, smaller, from Oracle.

I wasn't going to buy anything Microsoft for the foreseeable future. Oracle got one more penalty on my book.
