Where it states:

"Download an E-Pack for FREE or purchase a CD Pack to receive the media (CD-ROMs) for a suite of related products on a single operating system. If you do not own existing license(s), then you must purchase the associated licenses now or obtain Trial Licenses for a free 30 day evaluation period."

Refer to the last sentance. So, in an attempt to obtain a trial license, you then click on "Trial Software" link on the left, in which one sees

"* We do not offer trial licenses for our E-Business Suite Applications."

as a footnote to the first paragraph.

Of course, you could look at EBay and search on "Oracle Applications" - some VERY interesting results show up right now. Received on Mon Dec 13 2004 - 20:42:06 CST
