I was going to put them in but nobody had mentioned them, Whats a *real*
database?
Oracle & IBM (DB2) also have free versions with similar restrictions to SQL
Server Express if you want to use a *real* database :-)

Richard will agree. If you want to store 1 billion rows and have
hundreds of tables and complex joins, you do not want to employ
InterBase.
I've successfully used InterBase on projects that stored 100,000s of
rows without issues. But it simply isn't targeting a certain segment
of the market. Which is perfectly fine.
