Allthough this is not an official Oracle Corp statement, I'd like to make a few comments about this:
- Yes, this product exists in beta phase. I've got it running on my PC here with great success
- There have been announcements and requests for beta sites on Compuserve. If you want to join the beta program (if still possible), contact your local sales office.
- There is *NO* relation between this product (Oracle7 for Windows 3.x) and either Oracle Lite or Project "X". Both are not officially announced products.
- It uses Win32S and for this can also run on Windows4/Chicago (I guess).
