Stupid Rich mans sport, stupid rich corps sport. Who cares? I can put a 15 hp outboard merc on a john boat and out run all their million dollar toys. And catch more fish.

$10 million dollars? Converting from dollars squared, that's only about $3,162.28 in regular dollars.

You owe the Oracle a new mast.

So Shields cost $200K apiece? That's kinda expensive, this early in the game.

It couldn't handle the immense load of Larry Ellison's ego.

This has to be one of the worst headlines ever. Like an eclipse, it cannot be safely viewed without proper protection.

SQL Server masts only cost $2 million and do roughly the same job. However, they have a tendency to lock up if too many users use them at once

Dismasted. That just sounds funny.
