    Microsoft won't, but Oracle... I'm having trouble figuring out what Oracle sells nowadays that is worth paying money for. Are there really that many companies still hooked on Oracle's DB?

    The Ellisons don't care, they're in the media business now. They now control a sizeable portion of the news media, and as well as entertainment. It will bring in even more money, and also make them among the most influential people on the planet.

    Wouldn't/shouldn't investors see huge layoffs like this as a sign that the company isn't doing too hot? In a logical world the stock price should be plummeting right now... Oh they're down 25 % so far this year, so maybe it is.

    This is a sign they know they're near the end. They're looting everything they can before the company crashes.
