useful. the serious problem lies in the 20 year term. members for you to do a good job you should give the same good advice to us as you give to yourselves. as you give to your families as good as you give to your inturns as good as you give to your investor squz you didn't. members you cannot know oracle will be in business in 20 years. you can not know what your requirements will be in 20 years and you absolutely can not know what technology will be available in 20 years. you would never advice your children to buy more than a 2 year contract for wirealize service or pay more than 200 dollars for the hardware. wloo knows what mavls and technology will be around 2 years much less 20. there is a better deal out there, please go find it. thank you
