Re: Using Mac's for client/server Oracle application

We have been running Oracle Server for Macintosh for about 6 months now. When I inquired about Oracle 7, I was told that Oracle had no plans to release a version 7 server for Mac. We would have to be happy with accessing a Sun (or some other platform) if we wanted Oracle 7.

Other than that, we found the Mac server to be fine...as long as you don't want to run much else on the mac. As you know, the Mac doesn't support true multitasking, so delays can occur.

Good luck,
