Hey now be nice....

MS Access is not a great database and yes it does have its limits, but I've
run websites in the past with thousands of records in the tables and million
plus page impression per month. I also know of applications (not web based)
that run off of Access with hundreds of user and hundreds of thousands of
records that are more than sufficient

Also, unless Raymond has changed it since the last time it was mentioned,
but I think his deathclock website is still running (after quite a few years
now) using Access.

All it takes is a care and attention with your coding and caching and Access
will happily support a web application of fairly good proportions.
