He Hate Me

I heartily recommend David Hornik’s VentureBlog entry on who hates whom in Silicon Valley. Having just witnessed Steve Jobs’ hatred of Dell firsthand, I can testify to the accuracy of his observations. My favorite line?

“Ellison truly does hate Gates. He was not playing games. He made Carly Fiorina’s hatred of Dell seem like puppy love. The other executives should take hate lessons from Larry — it was a thing to behold.”
