Q: how can you specify with a select statement how many rows are given as a
result? I would only like to get the first three lines.....

1  SELECT machine_name, login, Count(login) AS CountOfLogin FROM
login_history
  2  group by machine_name, login
  3* order by count(login) desc
  4  ;

MACHINE_NAME     LOGIN      COUNTOFLOGIN
---------------- ---------- ------------
mocha            Jeff                  3
