I've used a few different databases to develop applications --
in (ACK!) MS-DOS with Q&A & Paradox and in Unix with UNIFY.

I'm wondering has anyone used any of these and used Oracle.
How does Oracle compare?  What are its best features?  Does
anything about it suck -- ah, I mean, are there any drawbacks?

Thanks for any knowledgeable responses!
