Unfortunately, it is a laptop. But it has 288MB of RAM. Does the Oracle 8i EE expire ? i.e. is it only good for 30 days ?
What are the key benefits to subscribing to the track. Do they ship product CDs ? If so, how quickly.
Also, please indicate what the key differences are between personal oracle and EE.
Thanks for your help and co-operation!
