Of concern to me is that looking on http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/index.html

11.1.0.7 is marked as windows 2008 No mention of 2003 or earlier. 11.1.0.6 is marked as Windows ( I would assume 2003)

10.2.0.4, 10.2.03 are marked as Vista and 2008 10.2.0.1 are marked as windows.

Now the difference does appear to be a patch from the …lower version to … higher. But there is no mention in the URL of backward compatibility.
I guess further support details are is in the readme if you get the CD or once you download it. Would be nice if there was more info on this screen to prevent wasting both my bandwidth and Oracles. Received on Fri Jul 03 2009 - 04:36:41 CDT
