I don't have the details, and i don't want to spread FUD, but this was referred to by someone who is a Unix fan and who thinks this is a warning that Unix shouldn't rest on its laurels. I also heard Linux running Oracle is also fast. I don't know.... <...searching...> I found some details at TPC's site. yes, the hardware was very different, but NT and MS SQL Server look like real contenders... Is there anything we can do to get BSD on this list? Or is this one of those 'you have to pay to play' games? -=> jm <=- ------------------------------------------------------- The opinions expressed in this message are the opinions of the mail program only, and not of the writer, his employer, or freebsd-uk.eu.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
