You see: in Australia, the sort of comment made by Serge would land
him in legal trouble - discrimination in any shape and format is a
crime here.
In the US? Ah well, it's the land of freedom...

Let's not forget the claims on how db2 was NEVER one single code base, despite the vociferous arguments to the contrary from the IBM lot here - and in real life: yes, I haven't forgotten what the IBM-groupies did to me at the employment I was back then. Never will.
An argument which I clearly won when they admitted publicly I was right. Never acknowledged by Serge. But let's not allow facts to fog a proper Usenet rant...
BTW: that offer to take up db2 for free if we drop Oracle altogether
still stands? In Australia, that's called "dumping", and it's
illegal.
Amazing...
