I think it's important to not make it look like you're just trying to overrule the other guy -- rather you want to open the discussion again. That will show them that you actually care about the decision.
Hmmm, that's probably good advice, rather than questiong this other guy's competency. I think I'd be OK with whatever we decide as a group, as long as I'm involved in the discussion.
all I can say is that Oracle may have the fastest database in the world, but they suck at writing applications for developers.
Amen to that. I have said this very thing over the last few weeks as I've used some of their design tools. I can't believe how poorly their software is implemented.
If it says Oracle in the title, you can probably count on it screwing you later on.
True, but not an argument I can use with my boss!
