Oracle Workgroup/2000 for SCO running on FreeBSD 2.1. See the Oracle web
page for information about ordering a 90 day trial copy. The cost is
$15.00. One could download it from Oracle but if I remember right the
complete distribution is around 100 meg. 

There is a web page put up by one of the Linux people that shows how to get
Oracle running.
