Which happens to be the same figures as for the "Oracle Enterprice
Edition". But OK, we happend to have the old "per user" variant with
a number of users that ends up like this...

Finally, those are "list prices". When my customer check what the "per
core" price would be for our systems, if was actually slightly lower
then our current $3.500 a year, using their current Oracle agreement.
