Excuse me? What makes you think that "Oracle types" are stuck on
cooked files? I've been putting Oracle databases into production for
almost 10 years and the vast majority of them are on raw. Oracle
Parallel Server won't even work unless everything is raw - redo logs,
control files and datafiles. Who have you been talking to?
