You will be able to ask it questions that no one can answer, like:<BR /> <BR /> "ArchiCAD Oracle, when will version 10 be out?"<BR /> and<BR /> "ArchiCAD Oracle, when will LightWorks get radiosity in ArchiCAD?"<BR /> "ArchiCAD Oracle, when will they figure out how to eliminate that stupid wall/slab joining line?"<BR /> <BR /> Stuff like that.

Archicad is essentially built around a database (with building components etc).<BR /> <BR /> This might mean that Archicad's database will get better in the future, built around Oracle's solutions. And it might also mean that it will be possible for external applications to read, and perhaps write into, the same database.<BR /> <BR /> Imagine designing your project in Excel, just saving as "Export to Archicad"!

Maybe I won't have to go quite so far now.

No predictive power, just a lot of..., trouble.
