Don't you dare! If you go with ribbons, I go with SQL Developer! Or I 
write my own "Toad", in assembler at that, with direct calls to OCI 
routines for added masochism!

Definitely marketing then!

Not many toads are wart free, so if it's Toad then there simply has to 
be warts.

And let's face it, it could be the most beautiful interface in the 
entire universe (or indeed multiverse) but if it didn't work, then it's 
useless. Toad works - and as a DBA, that's what I want. Something with 
the power of SQL*Plus but easier to use to make me more productive.

Developers will see more benefits than I do, but I couldn't really be 
without it.
