I guess if I was going to download and learn another database it would probably be PostgreSQL http://www.postgresql.org/ it seems to be a bit more in the enterprise level of databases in comparison to MySQL but I have not been following MySQL development for some time so perhaps things are coming along.

Is there going to be a viable (meaning $$) market for the product in the future? Or should I leave all the egg$ in the Oracle basket? Musing for fun and profit.
