I find a lot of the discussions about Oracle's pricing be too much when not
taking into account anything else way to funny.
First off, yes I could get SQL Server for a whole lot less then Oracle but I
sure would not be able to run the fab on it.
You simply can't compare one thing to another thing and say they do the same
thing. Now I would do a small application
that is not critical in SQL Server if there was no Oracle in house already.
As for DB2, it has a few issues where if you
try and do certain things you really do end up very close to an Oracle
price.
