Under these economic times the biting usually comes in the wallet. MySQL is a solid, fast little guy, perfect for serving up HTML type stuff to the web. I would turn to Postgres before Oracle or DB2. But I do agree -- Oracle and DB2 are stalwart enterprise capable systems with a lot of features that the open source databases don't have - yet. Like with most things, as I've learned on this list, it depends on what the workload is.

Hello from Gregg C Levine
John, I know that, you know that, and so does everyone else on this
list. My point is, most of my customers, wouldn't know what to do with
a good database, like Oracle, if it bit them, someplace. Anyway,
thanks for the reminder.
