RE: Don't know what's wrong with Oracle...
I've used Oracle in the past and when it comes to the Big4 (Oracle, Sybase, MSSQL, DB/2) it would be the product of choise for me, with DB/2 a good second.
But then I'm no DBA but a programmer writing code against the thing and the most interaction I have with the product itself is executing some queries and DDL statements against it or maybe inputting a stored procedure or two.But for most solutions they're all overkill, and something smaller and cheaper like Interbase/Firebird is all that's needed.
Cheaper, requiring a lot less hardware, and fast. -
RE: Notes
Or this one from the Interface hall of shame: http://homepage.mac.com/bradster/iarchitect/lotus.htm
We wish we found IBM's Lotus Notes a long time ago. This single application could have formed the basis for the entire site. The interface is so problematic, one might reasonably conclude that the designers had previously visited this site, and misread "Hall of Shame" as "Hall of Fame". Lotus Notes 4.6 contains almost every example of inefficient design illustrated thoughout the entire Hall of Shame site.
What follows is an introductory collection of some of the myriad of problems with the application. As we fortunately no longer use Notes, we encourage you to let us know which aspects of Lotus Notes have caused you difficulty. Of course, we recognize that some visitors may disagree with our assessment of particular features of the application, and we invite your feedback. Comments can be sent to feedback@iarchitect.com.
