Your friend is Not a MSSQL/NT/2000 expert, apparently! the answer is just the opposite.
I like Oracle better too, but what you just said is not SQL server's weakness.

This was actually one of the reason's I left my last employer.

The decision was made to go to MSSQL and I was given the same specs as with Oracle, ie: no lost transactions no matter what.

I hired a friend who is a MSSQL/NT/2000 expert to train me.

No mirrored redo/transaction logs.

Hardware RAID does not help when a LUSER like me does a del *

There were other issues that made me uncomfortable but robustness was the primary one.

SQLServer is an excellent workgroup product, it is not suitable for enterprise/realtime/CAD-CAM systems.

IMHO
