RE: SQL Server 2005 Review

Isn't it only natural, that complex systems are trying to get simpler,
while simple systems are trying to get more complex, encroaching on each
other territory?
Thanks Jared, good article.

Here is an interesting review of SQL Server 2005 by EWeek.
Seems to be quite objective.

http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,1896097,00.asp

One of the more interesting bits from an Oracle perspective:

   However, by making management more complex, Microsoft has discarded
the
   one significant advantage it had over Oracle Database 10g and IBM's
DB2-ease
   of administration. This makes DB2 and Oracle Database 10g look all
the more
   attractive for their broader choice of development frameworks,
management 
   interfaces, and server hardware and operating systems.

Some of us might find that somewhat ironic.
