Ryan,

I haven't used MSSQL in a few years now - so hard for me to compare as such.

There are heaps of articles out there on the subject however.

But I love working with Oracle ;o) It has it's quirks like many other DBs, but the 
power of it is 
truly a sight to behold (particularlly the XML handling capabilities - i.e. db side 
XSL 
transformations, and XPath searches)

There is a developer version you can download at: 
http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/oracle9i/index.html

You may need to create a pass to login.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Mark
