That's absolutely not true, Dennis. We've purchased Oracle Standard Edition
for serving web pages, and no one at Oracle told us we could not.
I think you need to find some other salescritters. You're being taken for a
ride.

Yes, but in order to put an Oracle database on the web, I HAVE TO USE
ENTERPRISE EDITION! The salescritters say so. It has to be unlimited users.
To repeat: I cannot (legally) put an Oracle database on an
internet-accessible web page unless it is an unlimited-user
(power-units-based) Enterprise edition version of Oracle. Let me put it
another way: I HAVE TO USE ENTERPRISE EDITION!
Now, it may be that every salescritter I've talked to is wrong about that,
but if so, what can I do? Reach through the phone, grab them by the throat,
and demand answers? (Not to say I don't *want* to....)
I'm not actually comparing apples to oranges if you look at it from my POV:
I'm comparing the lowest cost to do what I want using Oracle, to the lowest
cost to do what I want using DB2. If Oracle demands that I use Enterprise
Edition with unlimited users, then that's their price.
