Comment on The Art of Engineering - Building the ultimate car for Larry Ellison

Comments

Should be required reading for any future Oracle customer.

Because Ellison demands perfection from his engineers or because then they'll know why Oracle software costs so much?

Are the people who make the decision to go with Oracle more impressed by his success than they are turned off by his opulence?

Larry made his money from scratch in one of the most brutally competitive marketplaces in the tech industry. So what if he wants to enjoy some of his wealth now? Same with Richard Branson - or John Carmack.
