I don't know if it is true, but Oracle claims that SqlServer can have
dirty-reads, and that it may lock more rows than needed. If that is true, then
SqlServer is not even an option anymore and you do not need to know the
differences!



See http://www.oracle.com/database/showdown (requires shockwave and a
soundcard).
