Good one Maaz,

Adding additional item to the list:
-- As the talking point we could explain why RAC Attack takes "Installing
from scratch" approach as opposite to other alternatives (e.g. using Oracle
VMs + VBOX)
# My understanding is: Beside of other benefits it allows a) a person to
get hands on experience installing the the whole stack and learn new things
(eg. OS setup, rpms etc) b) allows unlimited flexibility in terms of
features to be configured and configruation options. A person can take as
many steps aside from the "official" instruction as he/she (I wonder if
there are ladies in this list:) wants. Or even better build new
instructions based on the first one.
