Rick - I agree that it can't hurt. Looking at another database can even give
you a fresh perspective on Oracle. Some assignments involve converting an

It never hurts to diversify your skills. As everyone on this list will

it is used in A LOT of small shops in the Linux/Apache/PHP/MySQL

Lyndon - Lost cause. Everybody is already teaching a lot of Microsoft
products. But Oracle benefits because there is a cachet from being the
"high-end" product. Cray Computer was good at exploiting that.

Oracle makes money there too. I teach Oracle classes at a community college.

It's the exact same class, just taught by someone other than Oracle. It's
amazing that more people don't take these classes instead of through Oracle

I totally agree. I alway thought Oracle should just give it

This sounds like Oracle is pricing/licensing itself out of the market.
This is not good because I see a lot of new student with MS SQL skills
and no Oracle skills. Guess what, they will want to work with MS SQL

Here's something you may want to consider with this licensing. If it comes to blow$ with Oracle, and you do have to pay, go for the standard edition not the enterprise edition. It is much cheaper on a named user basis. Cost is in hundreds per user vs. thousands per user. You could ac

I really got interested with your reply.
You seem to know a lot about how Oracle works with their licenses.

I'd really appreciate if you could give your "legal" opinion,
about what we plan to do.
For starters, we plan
