Re: Oracle 9ias hangs immediately after runInstaller

My suggestion is to ignore the following from Moose. How can you even comment on a product that is not yet released? And a comparison of Microsoft quality to that of Oracle's is nothing but a joke. If Oracle ever released Beta software as production-ready they'd be sued by Fortune 500s until Larry's only boat came with a small paddle.

I've seen the test lab work at two Fortune 500s with respect to Oracle 9i and I can assure you both will be implementing it very quickly. Neither has been willing to move from NT4 to Win2000 as of this date. Draw your own conclusions.
