488.0. "Oracle 'field test'" by DPDMAI::DAVISGB (Gil Davis DTN 554-7245) Tue Nov 14 1989 17:38

    Here's a good one.....
    
    I ran into a customer the other day that is testing Oracle V6 on an Ibm
    system under TSO.  Oracle has 1)Told them that it is field test
    software 2) is CHARGING them for the privilege of being able to test it
    and 3) Claims that a new release due out in Early January will increase
    them from fifteen 4381 users to 50.
    
    We are waiting to see what happens.....meanwhile, customer has
    begun discussions about migrating all of this to VAX Rdb/VMS.
