I saw something from Oracle a couple of months ago saying (with reference to PCs only) :

        All ORACLE 5 support withdrawn now.

	All ORACLE 6/DOS/Windows 3.1 support withdrawn soon - can't remember
	when, date may be absolute (in which case it's probably passed) or may
	be relative to release of Windows-"95" (in which case we're probably
	safe for a couple of years!).

	Only supported PC/ORACLE platforms will be on NT, OS/2 and
	Chicago/Windows-95.
