|  | I read that as:
   "...Digital and Network Computer Inc., a subsidiary 
    of Oracle Corporation."

| 5234.2 | nope, that's a direct quote | WHOS01::ELKIND | Steve Elkind, Digital SI @WHO | Thu Apr 10 1997 22:08 | 2 | 
|  |     Network Computer, Inc. is not mentioned in the article at all.  What I
    included is a direct quote from the article.
 | 
| 5234.3 | that is just fine :-) | MKTCRV::MANNERINGS |  | Fri Apr 11 1997 03:56 | 17 | 
|  |     The base note is great news. I'm not surprised we heard about this in
    such a roundabout way, that is how things are at DIGITAL. 
    
    Your expectations are rather low though:
    
     >Does this mean we can get RdB free internally again?
    
    As a division of Oracle, a well run growth oriented, customer focussed
     profitable company, we should get some profit sharing and things will
    start to move. In fact, even just thinking about it is a tonic. 
    
    And we should all get one of those nice light grey Oracle shirts with
    the distinguished logo.
    
    Really wondferful news.

|  | 	...and... Pier-Carlo back in the same building, same chair with 
	cafetaria talks deploring the poor 40% growth when forecasts
	were a strong 45%...

| 5234.5 | Did HE start this story? | MKTCRV::MANNERINGS |  | Fri Apr 11 1997 07:13 | 4 | 
|  |     AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH! I had forgotten about Mr F. Please ignore
    .3 :-)

|  | I think someone printed something wrong.  You say you got the article
from AP.
I got mine from Reader's Choice, as an official DIGITAL Press Release,
and it does say:
   "...Digital and Network Computer Inc., a subsidiary 
    of Oracle Corporation."
Maybe AP got it wrong?

| 5234.7 | PCF's whereabouts? | SHIRE::MEYER | Nick, DTN 7-821-4172 | Sat Apr 12 1997 06:14 | 5 | 
|  |     Strangely enough, I have only seen Pier-Carlo once, visiting EHQ in
    Geneva, where Oracle French speaking Sales operations rent a portion of  
    the third floor in the old Morgines 1 building. He might be CEO of
    Oracle Europe, but his office is somewhere else, maybe in the AT&T
    building in Geneva... Who knows...
 | 
| 5234.8 | just wondering again | MKTCRV::MANNERINGS |  | Mon Apr 14 1997 04:15 | 7 | 
|  |     >>visiting EHQ in Geneva
    
    My curiosity for gossip is out of control this morning. What make of
    car was he driving?
