I'd love to check out Oracle (and I probably will on this box in my
apartment which I can truly and honestly declare as for development and
educational use only) but a lot of my research (for now) I do to be able
to apply in the office. Unfortunately that doesn't qualify as development
use, and we can neither justify nor pay for Oracle, yet.
Thanks a lot for the tip, though. Now off to Oracle and get instructions
on getting my development license or whatever. Do you think a development
box running on a single Intel Pentium II 300MHz with 128MB of RAM, 2.4GB
free on the application partition and 1.4GB free on the data partition
will be enough for me to work with Oracle, for starters?
