Perhaps Oracle is more about data integrity and concurrency instead of being the fastest possible "file writer", which seems to be the idea of a RDBMS for too many developers. And it requires experience and knowledge to get Oracle running full speed.
WTF...I have seen this exact same Oracle RAC bashing post at least couple of times before. Do you keep it ready on your desktop for a quick copy&paste?
Uh, you think they need paraller processing capability, partitioning and other Enterprise Edition features? What are they doing, managing a data warehouse? Oracle Standard Edition One costs ~4995$/CPU (max 2xCPU). And that's the normal price. I'm a DBA in a academic institution and we get ~96% discount from Oracle. Oracle is expensive if you need EE, but that's rarely the case. So please stop spreading the fud.

What are you talking about? Oracle 10g Linux is 638MB in size. And I have downloaded and installed it many many times on five different platforms.

You have to press a button to activate the motion control. It doesn't scroll around without your explicit input. Looks nice.
