I'm not too sure on this, but then tagging the subject with COMMERCIAL 
since Oracle isn't free software[1].

I've installed Oracle 10g Express Edition on my laptop running Ubuntu, 
the installation is pretty straight-forward (sudo dpkg -i).  There are a 
whole bunch of docs on setting up and configuring Oracle on their 
developer web site.

Now for the question that Kenneth asked, any reasons for choosing Oracle 
over PostgreSQL or MySQL 5.x?

[1] Free as in freedom
