One comment I would like to make is that the Linux version is now tier 1
supported iby Oracle, just like Sun Sparc Solaris and Windows NT releases. The
versions starting from 8.0.5, 8.1.5 to 8.1.6 have progressively become more and
more stable. I know because I struggled with each one. There still are
problems with the release, but for the most part the 8.1.6 version is very
stable. The most notable improvement was the standardization of the JVM, which
allowed the Universal Installer to finally run with no problems. Give it a
try, it may just surpise you. Now as far as pricing goes for an intel
platform, I think it's way over priced. :P
