Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain my apologies, I think I might have slipped up and had some fun for a second. Guess that's the end of that. Have a good weekend. -----Original Message----- dgoulet@vicr.com Sent: Friday, February 02, 2001 3:37 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Jared, Wish I could say the same thing. Anyone know of a fast way to get rid of a resident young adult??? But, if you all let me return this thread back to a real discussion. How many of you out there are using Linux, particularly RedHat, in a production environment preferably with Oracle? The boss(s) around here are looking for a more "cost efficient" (read that as $0.00) operating system for some of our DB stuff. We may even decide on a more "cost efficient" (same translation) rdbms, otherwise known as PostGreSQL.

Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if the code for some database query optimizers trace back to some gaming AI code. :) Jeffery Stevenson Chief Databeast Tamer Medical Present Value, Inc.
