RE: 8th Deadly Sin - Unkept Promises

As a tool provider, I'm interested - what promises did they make for OEM 10g?

Cheers

Mark

The fact that they baited you with 10g to make you listen to sales pitch does not say anything about 10g.
I was in OOW in Paris last week and 10g seems to have a lot of goodies in it.
As we are now moving to 9.2 I do not think that we will use 10g but will jump, in 3-4 years, to 11g.
Anyway I am going to move to OEM 10g, if they deliver on promises made during presentations.
