Number fudging

I agree with the premise of your post, and would also like to point out that Sun posted these numbers in their presentation slides and not in their 10-K or 10-Q forms which means that they have not been audited. The billings data that we have cannot be relied upon and the mysterious "infrastructure" item does not have to be explained at all. Personally I wouldn't bet my life on the numbers but what I would say is that Sun has definitely fudged them to justify the nearly $1b price tag of MySQL.
