Have you seen any of my other posts, where I describe Sun/Oracle's utterly
abysmal and unacceptable support? Perhaps you might, and then you might
understand why I, personally, dislike Oracle. They've also always been the
high-priced spread. I've never been involved with the contracts, so I
simply don't know: perhaps someone here can tell us the difference between
the costs of the 3? 4? SLA contracts from RH and Oracle? I'll wager
Oracle's is comparable or higher.

Just one last question: if you think this highly of OUL, why are you here?
Why haven't you gone to their lists?
