I am in the process of evaluating oracle vs. its rivals. Some criteria I initially considered were:

· minimum client hardware requirements, · cross platform compatibility

   (DOS, Windows for Work Groups, Windows 95, mainframe)

· accessibility to previously stored data (XBASE)
· object Oriented Programming (OOP) support/opportunities
· industry directional

Can anyone point me in a good direction to find objective reviews of strengths and weaknesses?

A recommendation of a good publication would be very helpful.

Many thanks,
