Re: ORACLE7 for Windows 3.1 Announcement

Excerpted from "ComputerWorld", p.4, August 1, 1994:

"Two first are brewing at Oracle Corp. With a tardy nod to the popularity of desktop databases, Oracle plans this year to ship a version of the Oracle 7 database for Microsoft Corp.'s Windows 3.1 environment, an Oracle manager said last week. Separately, Oracle's so-called Project X single-user database and graphical development toolkit is due to start beta testing in late September, another company insider said."

..."Oracle 7 for Windows recently went into beta testing, said Keith
Majkut, senior member of the technical staff at Oracle, during an on-line Compuserve, Inc. conference last week."

..."The product ''does have a 'healthy' memory requirement'', Majkut said.
Oracle 7 on Windows requires 16M bytes of memory, including the Oracle PL/SQL language. Without PL/SQL, 8M bytes are needed."
