We are looking to select a RDBMS and associated sw for our product.  
The db will run on HP 9000s (HP-UX) with SUNs as the development system.

The current contestants are:
	Oracle
	Informix
	Ingres
	UNIFY

I would be _thrilled_ to get rational comment on these companies and their 
products on the any issues, especially the following:

	Customer support (both USA and other)
	Idiot-User Interface
	Ease of Use
	Quality of Product

Please E-Mail the reponse, and I will summarize or mail
to those who show interest.
Thank you

Doug
