Re: Virtual RAC on the cheap

I just want to mention that I bought a new Dell Studio Laptop 1555 for only 500€ ...

RAM 6g DDR2 (not 3).
CPU Core Duo P7450 2.13GHz

Definitely not the bleeding edge :)

Just tested RAC One Node Omotion on it :)

Tried two node RAC 11gR2 too, it's slow, but it's fine for what I need.
