ORACLE AND COMPAQ OFFER FREE TEST-DRIVES OF HOT TECHNOLOGY
REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., Feb 2, 2000 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --
(http://www.oracle.com/tellmemore/?135362) It's like going to buy a new
car: you want the right look, the right feel, the right engine and the
right price. You go to a dealer, and take your chosen car out for a
spin. Now, in a unique move to bring the virtual test drives of
technology right to your Web browser, Compaq and Oracle have teamed up
to create industry-first "road tests" of innovative Internet products
from both companies, including Oracle's market-leading leading Internet
Platform technologies on Compaq's NonStop(TM) eBusiness solutions
infrastructure. Offered free of charge and featuring Oracle8i(TM),
Oracle(R) Web DB, Compaq Tru64(TM) UNIX(R) and Linux on Compaq, the
"test drives" are accessible simultaneously through Compaq's TestDrive
site and the Oracle Technology Network. And this is one popular
dealership -- more than 2500 ISVs have already signed up to take the
demos out for a spin. Even better -- you don't need a driver's license,
and you can go as fast as you want.
