Info: comp.databases.oracle is dead, many isp's do not carry it anymore. This belongs in cdo.server; follow up changed to that.

Compaq ML380: some come with *very* faulty RAID controllers, and I mean *very* faulty. They have a throughput worse than an RLL controller in an 8088 PC.

Other than that:

1) Crystal ball is in polisher.
2) Bad application design
3) Wrong Expectations
4) Bad? Who's bad?^d^d^d^d^d^d^d^Define Bad.
