Do you know everything about Oracle? Check it with the Openworld Quiz. For our friends at iQuate a questionnaire was prepared to be handed out at their stand at Oracle Open World, we named it the Openworld Quiz. People who would give answer to the 8 Oracle licensing questions, were be able to win the newest iPod Touch: Sponsored by License Consulting.
