Oracle: SELECT * FROM Sun

Parent article: Oracle: SELECT * FROM Sun

I'm not to worried about Java, but I am curious about how this will effect netbeans? Does oracle use
a netbeans based system or an eclipse based system for this development products. Back in the day
they were using their own thing I think. This really seems to put oracle on a competative angle
towards IBM more than anyone else. Storage, hardware, development, db, a really turnkey kinda
solution for people whit too much money o know better.

Oracle has its own development tools, most of them sluggish and ugly, barely usable from my point of view. I don't think they'll give them up that easily (maybe merge them with Sun's over the long term? who knows?).
