The documentation claims that the Oracle app is running Redhat Linux.

Quoting http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,3959,633769,00.asp

"Microsoft implemented its application using .Net Framework, Internet
Information Services 5.0 and SQL Server 2000, all running on Windows
2000 Advanced Server. Oracle developed its application using Oracle9i
Application Server Release 2 and Oracle9i Database Release 2, both
running on Red Hat Inc.'s Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 2.1."

this is a joke. they are so narrow in presenting this and they fail to
realize that the majority of web used in commercial applications run on
some kind of Unix variant like Linux, HP-UX, AIX or some BSD. making a
contest that applies to the minority of commercial applications is
pretty shallow and baseless in my opinion.
