well oracle cant actually be compared to access because they are designed
to do different things:

	oracle			access
	-------------------------------------------------------
	database server		desktop database + frontend
	can handle mass data	can handle small data volumes
	professional tool	designed for small applications
	hard to handle		easy to handle

compared to oracle access is a toy ;-)
