Right...
There is Linux in our TV set-top box, but I do not have to see it.

But seriously... I do not know how much there is in the "client" kit
from Oracle today. But earlier it wasn't much more then an object library
and some .h files for the SQL*Net APIs. Then a SQLNET.INI (or whatever
the name was) with some host parameters for the servers...

And SQL*Net was earlier pretty version agnostic, so even old client
kits worked OK using more modern Oracle servers.

Ah well, where did I put those retirement forms...
