PS.: there are some restrictions to the release - for example DbConsole would not work ...
Oracle 12 the Green Database - Oracle 12 Eco
Now living in a time of financial crisis and a growing gap of natural resources
a new paradigma - a new database paragdima is needed.
For Oracle 12 i think this could be Oracle 12 Eco;
IBM Informix Dynamic Server to Deliver Support for Mac OS X
Informix has announced to add support for Mac OS X 10.2 Leopard; That's interesting because Oracle already did with the Oracle Server 10.1 release - but then stopped their commitment for the platform for unknown reason. But if Informix with a much lower number of installations is able to support a Mac OS X release why isn't Oracle?
The number of MAC OS X user is steadily growing - specially when Apple moved from Power to Intel Architecture; Interesting hardware (64bit) is available too : the Mac Pro and the Mac Xserve are capable to run Oracle effectively.
So - Oracle - why do you hesitate?
