And given HP's reorg that somewhat diminishes the importance of data warehouse DBMS/product appliance success, this would be particularly odd timing. The SAP rumor has always seemed nonsensical, as per http://www.dbms2.com/2008/10/11/patrick-walravens-sap-teradata/ The chances are very low that this is for real.
