Anybody seen a very fast wild cat out there?
A light-hearted exchange about the coming IDS 'Cheetah' release as a fast wild cat. Fernando Nunes said it was coming, Mark Townsend replied with a joke image of a cat, Fernando objected that it was a slow house cat and in poor taste, and Obnoxio The Clown found it funny. No technical content.

They're usually slower, fat and not very smart (they can't take care of themselves - need the owners attention). It's like comparing other RDBMS with IDS/Cheetah :> And the image has a bit of bad taste :( Regards. -- Fernando Nunes Portugal http://informix-technology.blogspot.com My email works... but I don't check it frequently...
