Hi,

I don't know anything about 10g yet. But...

1. If you don't want to waste time trying to figure out WTH is UnitedLinux, then here is Oracle's definition:

"The following UnitedLinux distributions are certified and supported by Oracle:

• UnitedLinux, which includes the following products from Conectiva, SCO, SuSE, and TurboLinux o Conectiva Linux Enterprise Edition powered by UnitedLinux o SCO Linux Server 4.0 powered by UnitedLinux o SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 (SLES 8) powered by UnitedLinux o TurboLinux Enterprise Server 8 powered by UnitedLinux"

>From the following link:

http://www.oracle.com/partnerships/hw/unitedlinux/index.html?Oracle_UL_Faq_031203.html

2) My understanding it that UnitedLinux(UL) is officially dead, and Novell has declared they're (and SUSE) done with UL. Ignore the hype and liars (oh sorry to those still lying).

3) This makes it clear to me why Oracle is so excited about RedHat. What's next?

HTH. Regards,

Mike Thomas
