Oracle announced on Monday that it has extended the deadline for PeopleSoft investors to tender their shares in its hostile bid to acquire PeopleSoft. Oracle has extended the deadline to 27 August from 16 July. The $7.7bn dollar deal offers $21 for each share of PeopleSoft stock.

PeopleSoft investors have tendered 4.69 million shares to date and are waiting to see if the Justice Department will prevail in its efforts to block the deal. A US District Court judge is expected to rule on the case sometime in August or September.

When all is said, if Microsoft produce the best product people will buy it and thats a good thing. If people have to buy their product because no one else can produce an alternative, only because interoperability protocols are kept secret, then thats a bad thing.
