Yep, the world's foremost Billy Basher left Apple's board of directors, dropping them to 5.

Fairly big news, but Eliison, even though he's tons richer than Steve Jobs, he's still relatively obscure, compared to Jobs and Billy Boy.
Heck, many people didn't know who Steve Ballmer was until the Monkeyboy videos.   :D

He probably dropped because he felt Apple was about to intrude on database services.

Oh, well, good riddance to bad rubbish, as they say...

I would like Ellison more if he didn't have some fanatical obsession with Gates, I mean, it's kinda weird, kinda homoerotic, don't you think?
