One of my uncles moved to another state and was telling me all about how Oracle pays a lot there and I should move there. I told him I absolutely never would. He just wouldn't understand it, and kept nudging so I told him my wife would not want me to move to another state, thankfully that settled that.

I said there was a study which did quantify worst maintainance practices: time to fix bugs, time to reply and several other support metrics and interestingly Oracle was not the worst, HP was.

My personal bias would also tell me Oracle is because of their business practices, but we were arguing about support practices.

Sorry, I missed the statistics part. I've never came across the one you mentioned either. I'd love to read that.

My perceived worst definition was not about only business practices BTW. I meant in every category.

Nonetheless, supporting the products you sold are also a business. :)
