Sybase sounds interesting. I don't really want to move to Oracle because of
the syntax differences (I mean, I'm just going by what I see here, and it
always seems like if someone gives a SQL solution, they almost always have
to add an Oracle caveat, it seems) because I'd like to work on some "work"
stuff on the laptop. So, Sybase uses things like @@IDENTITY?

What "flavor" of SQL does MySQL use?

I think it's now a toss-up kinda, between the two, but it seems like MySQL
is going to be the most "common" in that it seems like every host on earth
supports it.
