That's the point! Support and Training is very good. That means: You buy a database for several thousand Dollars. And then you have to pay an extra amount, so that you can use the database. I've worked for several years with Informix. You can use it without an extra training - even if you are a beginner - with just the shipped manuals. But this is nearly impossible with Oracle.
