Comment Bad stuff happening for Oracle? (Score 5, Interesting) 46

I sure hope so.
The college I used to work for was defrauded of a fairly large sum of money by Oracle.
They had purchased our director of IT who recommended a "new product" they had for handling basically all the accounting, grading and assorted other functions that a college could need.
