To be expected. I love that hiring by Oracle, by the way. When someone gets a minor disgrace on their record, you have to expect they're going to be trying extra hard to show that they're deserving of playing in the highest echelons.<p>Fraud, embezzlement, things like that - no way. But c'mon, lots of CEO's do minor things wrong (hard drugs, affairs, escorts, saying not-PC things) - I mean, lots of <i>people</i> have at least one or two things about their life that they'd get in trouble if it came out in the wrong context. Someone that had been recently shamed by something like this would be able to get hired below what they'd normally command and would be likely to work extra hard. Good hire by Oracle so long as they can handle the PR backlash, which is something Larry Ellison never seemed to care about anyways.
