I've never had experience with mySQL on a windows machine in production, but I have had 3+ yrs with it on a Linux platform and loved it. It's easy, powerful, and straightforward.
I also have about a yrs worth of exp with SQL Server 2k5 on a Windows platform, and don't care all that much for it. It's good, and powerful, and has lots of features, but some of the 'easy' stuff you can do in mySQL is difficult or tedious in SQL Server.
