Thank you oracle fanboy (a fanboy is what video gamers call another person who does nothing but put up posts on message boards supporting their product of choice)

What else are we supposed to think when the man says "Oracle9i Unbreakable Can't break IT.. Can't break IN. (IT as in it not IT as in information technology or whatever it means this week). Regardless of what they "truly meant" or "truly implied" it was marketed as an unbreakable product, or at least that's what the ad SAYS. If that is not what they meant, then they shouldn't have said it the way they did. . . simple.

Now they tell us to "re-define" our definition of unbreakable, come on people they lied get over it and move on. Anyone who got suckered in by this ad campaign deserves the headaches that come with it. Don't get me wrong I use oracle nearly every day and it works fine. When it works it's nice but when it breaks it's a royal pain but it can be fixed. Oracle is a somewhat decent enough product that they don't have to resort to lying to make a buck. Maybe the marketing department were worried about their bonuses this year who knows. All I know is this, if I were an engineer at Oracle I would have rolled my eyes and groaned the moment I saw this "promise" from our great visionary (insert buzzword of choice) leader Ellison
