HP Sues Oracle For Dropping Itanium Support 153
Fudge Factor 3000 writes "HP is suing Oracle for a breach of contract, claiming that Oracle was contractually obliged to continue supporting the Itanium architecture, which they recently nixed support for. Oracle has fired back that Itanium is essentially a dead architecture and will soon be discontinued by Intel. And so the blood feud continues between Oracle and HP."

Oracle should rename mySQL as "Oracle for Itanium" and send it to HP.

"HP's the very model of a modern multinational,
their expertise confined to MBAs and quibblers contractual,
the rest's been outsourced from Shenzhen to Hyderabad,
a plan that makes none but investors glad,
seeking strategies for how to make their systems worse,
they gobbled up Compaq with the power of their purse,
and after they had freed themselves of ghastly Fiorina,
she left the private sector to afflict the state of California."
With deepest apologies(not to be construed as admission of wrongdoing) to Gilbert and Sullivan.
