Just caught an Oracle ad. 'Our software will run your web site 3x faster than IBM or Microsoft, or we'll give you a million dollars'. Intrigued because I didn't see them claiming to run faster than Informix I went and read the details. What a riot. You have to convert your site and buy from Oracle anything they suggest. "Ok, so you've converted your web site at a cost of 20 million, and... what? it's slower? aw shucks. Here's your million. Hope you have fun with all the trash can filler you bought." Has anyone done this sort of conversion who would care to talk about it? That is assuming the list is back or comes back. cheers j.
