I have stepped in when DB2 was technically oversold. (which is all I know)
I have also been seen defending SQL Server in these waters when I felt
it was unfairly bashed.
To protect Oracle as an IBM techie..wouldn't that require some from of
quit-pro-quo in a good way for a change? ;-)
I do attempt myself in technical contribution on c.d.o.s and c.d.ms-sql
when it comes to SQL btw.
I'm glad you have recognized that I try hard to keep my side education
rather than confrontational.
Now let's heed HJR's request and end this thread's misery :-)
