Last 23rd December two Exadata v2 DB Machines arrived at our little Portugal! I’ve unpacked both, and at the first one, fellows at the data center were nice enough to put up with 3 “crazy” dudes from Oracle that were taking photo shots from every angle: I was one of these 3 
These are the very first two DB Machines in the whole Iberia market (Portugal+Spain)!!!
I proudly became speacialized in these machines that we hope can take Database Computing to the next level. These babies can do things that one year ago looked sci-fi.
I haven’t been able to post more tech stuff here because life at Oracle has been (happily) very intense, but stay tunned for Exadata v2 because it will change the way people look at database systems.

/me drools over his keyboard…
Mas essas bestungas estão num cliente ou na Oracle? (Se não for segredo, claro…)
Hummm. I’m pretty sure I’ve seen that closet somewhere…
So everybody knows José Matos was asking if these “baby-monsters” were delivered at customer sites. Yes, two in the same day, actually.
Sorry, I forgot to write the comment in English.
It’s official, I’m jealous of those two customers.
I don’t care about customers but I am jealous of Luis
