RE: comparsion of 9i vs. 10g

10g seems to be a good fix. Not so much to say for marketing types except of "g"(grid) but for dba's/developers:  

• a guaranteed undo retention
• automated work load repository. It was possible to dump database state before but now Oracle is capable of dumping some data in what - 15 sec intervals? Full snapshots are collected in 1 minute intervals.
• sql profiling

A lot of more thing cleaned up like for example:  

-dbms_output can now output 32k,
-sql with regular expressions (again, we could use owa_pattern before but not so easy)
-even documentation is better in some areas.
 

What I do not really like: OEM is something I refuse to trust for "one button press" database management. But that may be is personal, may be someone got OEM running stable.

There are, of course, lots of new features in 10g. I wouldn't have been released otherwise, would it?

Here's one major one that you won't find in the new features manual...

Oracle 9.2: 12 months to end of "premium" support. Oracle 10.2: More than 36 months to end of "premium" support.

Your managers will probably be able to *understand* that one. ;-)
