I think Solaris is categorized under unix tab.

FYI, I attended a one day Oracle conference yesterday and found out an interesting thing:

1) Oracle 11g has still only been released only on Linux. Additionally, Oracle was giving away a free version of Linux which I believe was created by Oracle Corp., so that people could download 11g for Linux, using this distribution of Linux.

Wonder what it means?

2) A presentation at the same conference made use of 11g on windows (even though it is not yet released). They are claiming Oracle on Windows currently gives best price/performance ROI of any database on any platform. This was not the purpose of the presentation, but it was a clear point made in the presentation.

OK, it is marketing to some degree.

But I find it very interesting that Oracle is seemingly going to great lengths to make it easy to work on Linux and Windows. Or maybe it means nothing. But maybe there is a future vision here?

OK, I'm done. Kevin
