Comments on: Oracle judge won't bar disputed witnesses

Neither Oracle nor Justice Department manage to keep other's witnesses off the stand.

Interesting??

The Justice Department is concerned about the database market
lacking competition. Have you noticed that MS was in talks with
SAP but they say that is insignificant. They seem to have
something about MS. They won't punish MS over anything or if
they do it is a slap on the wrist. They even complained when the
EU decided to take MS to task.

I no longer have any respect for the JD.

insignificant-yes

Since MS has no significant presence in the market, and no stated intention of buying SAP outright, it is insignificant. Personally I'd rather the courts not decide what's good or not good for the market.
