Peter,
Thank you so much for providing the data. Could you tell me where this data
comes from? Any more info about it?
Karl,
Thank you for graphing the numbers.
For everyone's convenience, the graph can be seen here (scroll
down)://www.freelists.org/post/oracle-l/Oracle-historical-prices-or-trend,2
The original intent of my question is to see if the price trend has played a
role in increasingly attracting some small software vendors to stop supporting
Oracle and embrace SQL Server, if we only compare these two RDBMS's. (For the
price trend of the latter, I'll go to a different forum.) Now I know the Oracle
software license fee itself is unlikely to be a factor.
