Google and Oracle: A Hypothetical Price Tag for Alleged Java Brewing
June 16, 2011
Short honk: Google is an ad outfit. Oracle is a database outfit. Google used to have a lot of Sun executives. Oracle now owns Sun. Google uses a Java-esque method in Android. Oracle owns Java, no “esque”. Mix and put in the Silicon Valley sun. What does one get? Another legal hassle for Google and a potentially huge pay day for Oracle. The hypothetical price tag appears in “No More Doubt: Oracle Wants Billion-Dollar Amount from Google.” With Google making mobile search its new money Mississippi, Oracle may want to dam that river and pump cash into its channels. On which company does one bet? The goose does not wager but he has a fondness for the old dolphin way.
