MySQL will run on Linux, NT, or Solaris (MAC, DEC, FreeBSD, and AIX also I
believe, but not positive). I'm sure someone in your company will know how
to administer at least one of these. I've only used the NT version
(comparison here:
http://www.mysql.com/information/benchmark-results/result-mysql-platform-rel
ative.html) and I downloaded some of the free GUI's, and the interface was
easy to use. Not to mention well documented on the web. There will be some
time learning it, but less than you think.

You are forgetting the time (=money) it takes to train people to work with
and support MySQL, and the systems on which the database is hosted.
