Hello,

It looks like Oracles think only idiots can buy their products and believe their hypes.

And couple additions:

The real beta-testing will start when they begin to sell 10.0.1.0.0.

One of the repeated questions here and other forums &#8211; how to install 9i RAC on a single PC. BTW, there is appropriate note on metalink. I guess that next big question (due to Oracle hype) &#8211; how to install 10g Grid on a single PC for learning purposes at home.
