Can you back any of these statements up with facts?

Things like "beats Oracle hands down", or "about as good as DB2/400"?  What
features?

Or "scales nicely"?  On what platform?  What database size?  How many users?
Have you run any of the standard transaction load tests, such as TPC-C or
TPC-H?

Or even "a fraction of the price".   How do you calculate that?  Initial
cost?  Ongoing cost?  Total cost of ownership?  Cost/transaction?  For what
size database?  10MB?  100MB?  1GB?  1TB?
