The gain would also be that Oracle administrators are 
pretty wanted on the job market (and it probably won't 
change soon) and the Postgresql/MySQL unfortunately not.

I also wonder if someone got the Sybase database running 
on OpenBSD? They even have FreeBSD client libraries, but 
the server itself is for Linux only... I am asking it here, 
because I have a too slow internet connection for now and 
can't try it myself yet.

Also, if someone gets Oracle running, please tell it here.

Alex
