As much as I hate to continue this thread, I would hate even more to go with 
Linux unless I have to. What's that status of FreeBSD SCO Binary Compatability?

I'm interested in starting an Oracle database on my system. I've talked to 
a guy Who works for Oracle in the neatherlands who has gotting the SCO binaries
working. Any hope for FreeBSD. 

Ya know Jordon for a free copy of the 2.05 CD I would be willing to test 
it out and give you a report. :-}

Let me know if anybody has been working on this. Thanx.
