Re: Whose barrel …
Given those options, MS looks almost friendly...
IBM would discuss how they planned to make your business dependent on their poorly implemented solution with senior management and avoid IT getting involved in such an important decision. And then proceed to screw over the business over the coming decades.
Oracle would slip something in your companies drink and start screwing you as soon as you lost consciousness. After a few years of mistreatment you would decide being screwed over by someone you know might actually be better than being screwed by a stranger and at least your account manager is being screwed just as bad as you...
