Hi,
My trial version of Personal Oracle 7.3 for win95 will expire around
April 7 and I plan to purchase a Personal Oracle product for either
win95 or NT sometime soon after. I believe the rollout for Oracle 8 is
slated for June and I'd like to know if there will be a Personal Oracle
8 for either win95 or NT available in June also. If a PO8 is available,
I would like to know if anybody knows anything about Oracle's upgrade
policy; say, if I buy PO7.3 in April could I get a free or low-cost
upgrade to PO8 if/when it comes out, or should I hold off purchasing PO7
and opt for PO8 in June. I'm new to Oracle and know nothing of their
policies and plan to call them them on Monday but I figure some vets
might be able to answer (or speculate intelligently on) these questions
now. I'm supposing a June date since I saw Oracle's CFO on
CNBC yesterday or the day before and he was confident Oracle 8 would
ship in June.
Thanks,
