Re: Oracle vs SQL Server 7 comparison

I started to provide an answer, but I decided that he was one of the following:

1. too lazy to do his own research
2. looking for someone to work for free because he underbid the task
3. too ignorant to know the difference, and looking for someone to help do a little CYA

Assuming that he falls in one of these categories, then David's questions are about all that he deserves.
