Hmm. Certainly used to mean something different. And the Oracle Bare Metal download is a Linux OS plus db.
So that whole sentence just says that the Windows Installer can be installed on any Windows ? Now I understand why you were so worried about the marketing content last week JD
I am concerned that the "bare metal" description is misleading to users, since on both the Linux and Windows installers an OS is still required. Suggesting that the installer can setup a full stack including OS will be confusing.
Bare metal is an industry standard term for, "not virtualized".
