| 1337.1 | Placed in a world readable area | SWAM2::SOTO_RU | | Tue Mar 08 1994 19:15 | 21 |
| I have deposited this presentation as well as other competitive
material I had developed sometime ago for an RFP in a public area.
Anyone who wishes a copy, just grab it. The presentation is in a
self-extracting ZIP file (just execute the file on your PC) to save
space and transfer time.
The address is
CWOPCA::SYS$PUBLIC CWOPCA is DECnet address 16.287
BTW:
We won that bid (against HP and Informix).
As more stuff gets developed, I'll place it there so feel free to
peruse it regularly.
regards,
Ruben
Any problems, send me mail.

| 1337.3 | One more Alpha, OpenVMS, OSF/1, Rdb presentation | SWAM2::SOTO_RU | | Thu Mar 31 1994 20:26 | 29 |
| Just gave a 'toned-down' version of the .PPT presentation described in
.0. Major difference is the direct Oracle shots I had written in the
.PPT, although I verbally used them during the presentation.
The basic audience was unfamiliar with Rdb, had heard all of the Oracle
marketing BS, was kinda inclined that way but were hesitant due to
Oracle's steep pricing. After the presentation, the followup session
questions were all Rdb related. Of course, they could've assumed I
didn't know anything about Oracle and was therefore fruitless to ask
about that (pretty astutue on their part).
I was there supporting Ross Systems. The guy from Ross (their technical
equivalent) was very, very supportive of Rdb and was not hesitant to
describe Ross application performance differences beyween the two dbs.
He let it be known that the reason Ross did certain things at the
application level was to accomodate features lacking in Oracle, Ingres,
but which exist in Rdb (design to the lowest common denominator
theory). Couldn't tell you what they were since I was concentrating on
the next major Rdb feature ( and Oracle 'slam') so I ignored the
details. The client seemed to like the idea of Rdb as a real Production
System db (helps to explain what the characteristics of a PS is before
you engage in this conversation) even though the application is a
finance package.
Anyway, I'll be placing this .PPT in the CWOPCA public area. The name
is STJOE2.PPT.

Ruben

| 1337.4 | SW versions for the files... | SWAM2::SOTO_RU | | Mon Apr 11 1994 20:38 | 13 |
| Has anyone had problems copying the .EXE files to their PC and
Unzipping them?
Some data:
The files in the .EXE file are in either Word-For-Win 2.0c, Excel 4.0a,
or Powerpoint 3.0. The Zipping program is version 2.04g from PKWARE.
These are the versions of the programs you'll need to unzip and then
use the files.

| 1337.5 | Files recopied to public area... | SWAM2::SOTO_RU | | Tue Apr 12 1994 20:03 | 9 |
| I've recopied the file
STJOE2.EXE to CWOPCA::SYS$PUBLIC:
I've also copied the two .PPT files in that self-extracting executable
(STJOE2.PPT and STJOERDB.PPT).

| 1337.6 | Node CWOPCA unavailability | SWAM2::SOTO_RU | | Fri Jun 17 1994 07:00 | 12 |
| Node CWOPCA has gone offline as of May 20, 1994. The system was
shutdown in the move from the Costa Mesa, CA to the Irvine facility.
There are no plans to resurrect this node as the new group I was
assigned to has its own server which i use (and now don't have to
manage).
I have many of the files on floppies and as soon as I can arrange a
home on the new server, I will post it here. Please be patient with me
if you have dire need of this stuff.
regards,
Ruben
