something to fill up the cable modem pipe - that you don't have to be 18
to access.
I watched the 9i Database overview (while burning 9i 4 leenucks CDs)

- where did my rollback segments go? :)
- default temporary tablespace for the database (for all users to
inherit)
- dynamic memory management of the SGA and PGA.
        If this means that after a query uses a hash join where it threw say 
        8 MB of memory as hash_area_size - that this memory will be
released back
        to the available pool - I'm psyched.
- NFS mounts for iFS.
- Timezone/Daylight Savings time functionality across time zones.
- Unicode 3.0
- LONG to LOB conversions (do not need to useexp/imp)
- External Tables - can use PL/SQL to MATCH rows on external files
(ETL).
- multi table inserts
- Upsert (insert/update) MERGE (yes, I'm lazy).
- cubes in the database - OLAP Server.

Yes, my time might have been better spent actually reading the 9i
Administration manual, but I just don't feel like reading right now.

Michael Hasenstein is THE man for Oracle on Linux.
This site is definitely worth a look:
http://www.suse.com/en/support/oracle/

Is it just me - or has anyone else seen that Dell offers "Linux 7"
pre-installed on PowerEdge Servers?
This utterly INFURIATES me.
If Dell truly "gets" Linux - they wouldn't allow an obvious faux-pas
such as this.
There is no such thing as "Linux 7".
"Linux" != "RedHat"
I wonder if the use of the term "Linux" in this manner may in fact be a
copyright/trademark  violation.
Please don't misunderstand me - I'm very glad that Dell ships
pre-installed Linux distributions on its PowerEdge and Precision boxes -
just call it what it is - ideally -  "Dell/RedHat GNU/Linux 7.0". I'd
settle for "Dell Linux 7.0".

used RedHat 5.1, 5.2, 6.0, 6.1, 6.2. 
as far as I was concerned - RH 7.0 was a terminal release for RedHat.
Too many other good distributions.

mucking around with Oracle on SuSE (7.1) anyways - since the 6.2 release
(swag at NYLUG).
playing on Mandrake 8.0.
