"the goal of a consultant company is to make money"
As opposed to which company ?

- bhaak 7y agoThe context was the OP I was replying to. But the information that IBM and Oracle are still competitors in many markets is explicitly what I was unsure about. Thanks for reminding me about the Red Hat acquisition, I completely forgot about that already.
