Subject: RE: runInstaller
1) Production shop, obviously your not installing Oracle that much. But a
development shop is regularly installing Oracle. It would seem that
people
with a "command line" background appreciate the power, flexibility, speed,
and therefore crave a command line installer. While people with a "GUI"
background appreciate the comfort of GUI. Click your radio buttons, click
Next. Click Help if your stuck, etc.
2/3) Yes, Java is everywhere for a reason. But real cross platform
development....Perl....(hoping for that free book from Jared..(grin))

All this ranting is nice but consider the following:
1) You do not install oracle on a server so much.
In fact, in our shop this is done by the technical
people, not the DBA. The DBA got the machine with
oracle already installed and just build the database.
2) When you have to do cross platform development
Java is the tool to save on resources.
3) Any machine that's need to run a production database
should be strong enough to run Java ok.
