List pricing on 9iAS is very reasonable, $400/named user (let's not get into the "named user" debate again...)

Hmmm is the "named user" model a can of worms- I missed the debate, but I have to ask- how is a named user relevant with an application server? You probably have one (or very few) named users. Same thing with the Ora Apps, not many actual users. There's an application user level is one step removed from the database level, lots of those but thats not an oracle "named user".

Most teenage hackers have no exposure to big application software so it hasn't been a problem yet. But if somebody logs into the dell site and is able to crack just one oracle database-level user, their entire manufacturing system could be affected, ALL application-level users. L
