You do not need to "argue that a filesystem is a database", because
that is true.

Yeah, but you and me date from the days when an ISAM library was a
database, and when we got started on computers the filesystem was an
optional software component :).

Then along come these Oracle dweebs who honestly believe that if it's
not Oracle, it's not a database. It makes me want to scream. These guys
can write SQL all day long with stored procedures on joined databases
but they honestly have no clue of key-value relationships. I have never
ever seen such single-minded devotion to a single brand of crap. Even
in the days of "you can't get fired for buying IBM" (yes I'm dating
myself, and although I don't classify myself as an IT guy I butt heads
with them every day) it wasn't that bad.

At least California's Governor did prove that yes, indeed, you *can*
get fired for buying Oracle!

Yeah, my shorts are too tight and Oracle dweebs piss me off every
single day.

Tim.

followup: they can't tell me if anything's wrong with their web site
because it might violate national security...

Hello Graham,
What's your preference ?

What key features influence your decision ?

Can't speak for Jim but I guess it's similar. The three most important
parameters for me are:

1. Reliability
2. Reliability
3. Reliability

Same as the location thing in real estate.

Regards, Joerg

Well, yes there's a lot to be said for that but I've noted cars differ in
other ways that are also very important.

A friend of mine bought a recent(ish) VW Passat on recommendation but
couldn't live with it since the seats wrecked his back. I'm surprised to
be honest but there you go. I've also been in cars ( both Fords btw )
which were also painful to sit in for extended periods - one gave back
ache - the other leg ache - both due to poor support. I'm pleased to say
that Saab ( my current drive ) seats are amongst the very best.

My all time favorite car seats were the bucket seats GM used in the
'66 GTO. I liked them so much that I installed on in the '73 Chevy
Stepvan that I used as a service truck when I did industrial
electronics, and commercial sound systems. I drove that truck to
Florida several times, straight through. About 18 hours and although I
was tired from the drive, I felt fine. It was wide enough that you
could move around some. That helps maintain the circulation in your
lower body and legs, which adds a lot to your comfort and safety on long
trips.
