good point although I would think that if they are interested in collecting 
license fees, it would make it trivially easy to find out the cost for small 
quantities (i.e. under 50) and pay for it right on the website. No need to get 
any expensive salesperson involved. If there is no way to pay a license fee 
without involving a salesperson, that says that Oracle has no interest in 
collecting license fees below a certain limit where the cost of the 
salesperson's time is greater than the amount of revenue gained.

I would love to just tell the customer to go to this website, spend a 
relatively 
small amount of money and end up with a product that's better than vmware (even 
though I have friends that work there).
