BTW in the background of MOS down, MOS down this article
http://www.informationweek.com/news/global-cio/security/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=222002898&cid=nl_IW_btl_2010-01-05_t
is veeeery ineteresting. It shows that Oracle's revenue for
maintenance is $3.247 billion but expenses only $264 million, so the

So probably therefore MOS operation also is fantastic? :)
Of course the question remains how revenue and expenses (especially
for maintenance) are counted and attributed.
