Howdy Steve,
Thanks for the info. I called Oracle today and was told that they'd "probably" get PO8 out soon after Oracle8 which he supposed might be as early as July/Aug. So, who knows. I was told by post, and had it confirmed by Oracle, that, in the absence of a support agreement, that there's no price break for those buying PO7 immediately prior to PO8's debut. Oh well, looks like I'll be hit twice but I always look forward to new versions so who cares.
