I started new courses this week: Project Management/Career Development and Oracle.  Should be interesting.

I’m trying to decide whether to work on the oracle labs at home via VPN + VNC or install Oracle on my own laptop (ubuntu -64bit).  I had no trouble in a previous semester getting the MySQL and JavaEE stack up and running locally, which saved me a lot of hassle while developing.  Oracle and form builder shouldn’t be any worse should they?  Doesn’t hurt to experiment.

UPDATE – Oracle 10g and Sql developer work just fine after some initial config changes. I’m also done the first lab.

UPDATE II – The Oracle Development Suite proved to be too much of a pain to install in ubuntu. No deb package like there was for the database. I’ve set up a CentOS vm to see if I can get it all up and running there. I should probably just use the VPN connection to finish the homework. Or I can continue to mess with this…
