Actually, I was asking Jochem.

AFA MS SQL goes, I've learned this about MS: Their consumer products suck.
Their server products are OK. Their development products are pretty good.
I remember back in college, when I had to program in C to run on a Mac.
Everyone developed in MS Visual C++, then recompiled on Code Warrior for Mac
before turning it in.
We've found MS SQL to be a pretty studly product with lots of useful
doohickies. There are a few things I would like to see different, but
what's perfect? Of course, the downside to it is the price tag. :-)
