Oracle does site licensing... but only if you are a very very large corporation. Citibank (when I worked there) had one. The company I work for now has one.
So I don't ask "do we have a license" when I want to install a new version of Oracle, even if it is a new platform
One of the few things that is easier working in a rigid corporate environment

There's one thing that IBM can do, which Microsoft and Oracle can't offer: They do site licenses as well as cpu and user licensing. That just gives them an incredible advantage to management and others who
can stop thinking about whether they should buy another server, move
stuff from one server to the other, etc. I can't believe Oracle and
Microsoft are not doing it (I think I can guess, but it's still not good).

Oracle 10g will cost 10 grands/ CPU. That's where the letter "g" is coming from.

We've been very excited about Oracle Standard Edition. Helped
the interest in MS SQL. Given the budget pressures at manyorganizations,
I'm surprised we don't hear more about this alternative.transactionnal

Hi all,
We're an Oracle shop, over 140 Oracle instances.
Today, architecture has chosen IBM DB2 for BI projects.
The next step I guessed will be to choose DB2 for the new
applications also.<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
IBM offers DB2 at 25% less than Oracle.
I wonder if Oracle 10G will come with a new pricing structure ?
