A couple big acquisitions in the tech space today.
First, Oracle finally buys BEA for approximately $8.5 billion. Oracle is not sexy, but Larry Ellison manages to keep feeding the beast and making it sexy enough.

Next huge play is Sun acquiring MySQL for $1 billion. Congratulations to Mårten Mickos (CEO), Monty Widenius (Co-founder),and David Axmark (Co-founder)! I hope everyone was well rewarded.
