[Info-vax] Rdb question

Buying cheap is... Rdb cost Oracle $US108M, which was made back from license charges in the first 12 months!
The sale was inked 29 years ago (1993), and went through in 1994.  Such a sad time at Digital, the 1993 recommendation to the board was for Digital to become a software company with Rdb as the center piece, this was rejected as Rdb had already been sold.  Mumble!

Oh well, MariaDB and PostgreSQL for OpenVMS.
