>Nobody really cares about Oracle and its corporate image outside of the software industry

Quite a few non-tech corporations that use their products care. I consult for Fortune 2000 companies and "getting off Oracle" is probably a top 3 IT priority for most of them.

That aside, I can't think of any logical reason why Oracle would even want to buy them. It would be like Google buying a dry cleaning chain. There's no synergy whatsoever.

Oh fair, I always thought a distaste for Oracle was confined to tech.
