Toad vs TOra vs ?

I'm looking to jump into the brave new (to me) world of tools to make
my Oracle life easier, and I'd appreciate a little guidance. Is Toad
generally preferred over TOra, or vice versa? I know they are both
owned by Quest now, but it looks like it hasn't been long enough for
them to make their mark on TOra in a significant way. Are there other
tools I should look at?
I wear many hats, both DBA and software developer, so I'm interested in
making pretty much any Oracle-related task easier/faster/better.
We run Linux servers but I have Mac OS X on my desk. We currently do
not have any ports open for the listener; all Oracle access originates
from the server it's running on, and for security reasons I'd like to
keep it that way if possible. So is it at all practical to install one
or more tools on the server and run them locally via X11, or is that
slower than the proverbial molasses? I'm sharing a full T1 with one
other person so bandwidth isn't an issue (we run a home office out in
the boonies and this was the only practical means of getting broadband
out here).
Oh, in case it matters we are still running Oracle 8.1.7.4 (yes, I know
I need to upgrade :).
Thanks in advance for any advice,
janine
