so ... much ... venting .. to .. be ... done. Clearly a sales pitch for Oracle tools. SP are just fine if your building Enterprise apps being used by a few hundred people.. you're environment is fixed and probably a handful of developers will ever touch the code. Could you imagine writing a huge open source app using SP? Not every has the same toolset, and pretty much most of them won't have access to Oracle's debuggers/version control/etc. Also, the argument of "If you have a few million users, you can afford to scale your database up" is complete bullshit. If I were the marketing department for Oracle, this would be the sort of seed idea I'd be trying to place in order to sell more licenses.
