As I said in the MS SQL Server group where this was also posted.

The sole purpose of this is to create a flame war that no one really needs.

If you want to do a comparsion fine. But do a good one. This is so incomplete and demonstrates so little command of the subject as to be no favor to Oracle Corp. or anyone seriously interested in the subject. A serious comparison does not use hyperbole to make its points.
