RE: OEM justification

I think that's right, but I don't really have much experience with licensing so don't take my word for it. $3K/CPU is the list price, but I think those prices are fairly negotiable. If they think they're going to have to give you a deal on the Diagnostics Pack in order to get you to buy Enterprise Edition DB for 20 CPUs and the sales guy is in a good mood, he'll probably cut you a deal.

So, you say about $3000.00/cpu. If I have 5 machines 3 production and 2 development with 4 cpus each, and the OMS and repository resides on one only. I need 12000*5=$60,000.00 just for the Diagnostics Pack? Say it ain't so? ($36,000 just for the 3 production machines).
