Oracle financials

I also have to administer a mid sized oracle financial's (e-business suite or whatever they call it today) database. It is still stuck on 8.1.7.4 and is a thorn in my side. What a conveluted mess of technology, and since it is a tool from oracle, they of course use very little of the databases capabilities or technologies. We are planning a upgrade to 10g this year. So, after all that work I hope they have improved their application. But the users love it, it is their baby. The amount of paper that database generates via the reports is freaking amazing.
