Earlier quoted context omitted.

He's got to be on top of all the industry trends. Say what you will about Larry, he is on top of this.

Really? That isn't obvious to me by what Oracle has done over the past 10-15 years.

Their course corrections have been as good as any large company. Even if the product wasn't there, they caught many of the biggest trends. Even Microsoft didn't see the internet coming.

What is with the capitalization on the headline on Recode? I read it and thought, who is "Will Remain"? It should be: Larry Ellison will step down as CEO of Oracle, will remain as CTO Headline capitalization is pretty easy: Capitalize the first word, then any proper nouns. That's it.

It is correct according to most commonly used guidelines for headline capitalization. You were describing how to capitalize stuff in a paragraph, not a headline. http://www.grammarunderground.com/capitalization-of-headline...

Well, I stand corrected. Dang.
