Oracle to buy big project portfolio management player (Network World)
Primavera Systems. I heard more about SAP as a possiblity than Oracle. I'm guessing the price tag is probably close to a billion,
perhaps a little less in today's market environment. It would not be surprising to see more Oracle acquisition activity in the
Philly area, perhaps in the Healthcare IT or Insurance verticals.

Note: It is now after 3 pm EST and the deal was announced around 8 am, but I still don't see anything on it on either the Inquirer's or Business Journal's websites.
