<==>   <==>   LoL! The "Winter Corporation"? Which databases

<==>   <==>   
<==>   <==>   The Olympics one that IBM did on DB2?
<==>   <==>   The Terraserver database?
<==>   <==>   The SETI one?
<==>   <==>   2500 Transactions per second is the fastest they did? A

<==>   <==>   i know of is 8400/second.
<==>   <==>   
<==>   <==>   :-) Oh, yea, and How much did Oracle pay Winter

<==>   <==>   
<==>   <==>   Inquiring minds want to know! :-D

Interesting. For those of you who haven't read the article, it says that a survey made by the Winter Corporation showed that the top 10 OLTP databases on UNIX in the following categories: "Most Data", "Highest Workload", "Most Rows/Records" were all Oracle databases.

Does anyone know of similar surveys on other platforms? In particular Windows NT / Windows 2000?

And how about on the Sinclair, the Tandy, and the Commoder PET? :)
