Long title to an interesting journey...
I just returned from family vacation (and hence offline) that we spent in San Jose and San Francisco (California). This included more than a dozen Cable Car rides, walking steep hills, and enjoying Fog City. Could you imagine going down the hills in SF on skiers?
The marketing guys of Audi of course could. Speaking of Audi, which is part of the Volkswagen group: They were today featured in a press article because Audi has been replacing Oracle and HP with DB2 on Power. Switching over was not an uphill battle, but a smooth ride. And the system stability wasn't going downhill either...
