font-family:Arial'>The purpose of this business case is to evaluate whether it
is in the best interests of the State of <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Oregon</st1:place></st1:State>
to acquire a single statewide license for System 11 that would replace the
nearly 700 existing Brio/Hyperion desktop licenses. Oracle no longer supports
the <font color=black><span style='color:black'>legacy</span></font><font
color=navy><span style='color:navy'> </span></font>desktop licenses and has no
plans to provide a software patch when current users migrate to a new operating
system beyond Windows XP. The business case examines the pros and cons of the
various alternatives and recommends the purchase of the System 11 enterprise
license without the Web-based features.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
