I haven't seen Sybase on Windows (only barely have seen it anywhere,
fitting with the comment made that it hides in the lucrative financial
industry); I _have_ seen Oracle deployed on Windows NT.  (I was once
involved with a deployment on Novell Netware, which is _really_ odd,
as platforms go :-).)

That we don't see these things a lot may mean that we are seeing
somewhat "ghettoized" areas of the computer industry.  I doubt Sybase
'does Windows' terribly much, but just because I don't see it doesn't
mean it doesn't exist.
