Tehehehe! Ditto, eh? :-D

Saw the Platypus QuikPak at the local ORACLE user's group do. 390Mb/sec of transfer rate, battery back-up with mirrored disk back-storage, solid-state storage.

500K rows created and committed in 2 secs. Ideal for my redo logs! Yummy. Now I have to convince my EMC users to get an additional 6Gb of this stuff and their DB will "feh-lie"!!!!
