This is really a scattershot question because I have little exposure
to ORMs and only vaguely formulated requirements.

Some background...I like postgresql a lot and also use sql server and
oracle. I/we are usually responsible for all of the parts of an app,
from the rdbms to the user interface. We do a lot on Windows with .net
(visual basic) but are getting exposure to flex on the interface side
of things. So far we've been able to keep clear of ORMs and code
generators.

A project is coming up which will need be be deployed against both
postgresql and oracle (different deploys). This may be forcing us to
use an ORM so that the interface is more independent of the rdbms.

Is NHibernate and maybe Castle Project Active Record a good solution
for our needs? The ORM would not have to be open source, ie we could
buy something. We want it to be as simple to pick up and use as
possible. We don't want to lose the ability to execute procs in
postgres and I'm worried that nhibernate has that limitation, as the
front page states that stored procedures are supported for sql server.

Finally, is Active Record ok with visual basic? Most if not all of the
examples are in C#.
