Hiya,
I'd opt for PostgreSQL mainly due to the Licence for commercial use
(unless that's changed).
For OS X PostgreSQL go here: http://www.postgresqlformac.com
OpenBase is another option, I believe it's still free for 10
connections (you mentioned no heavy usage, I'm assuming connections
here).
Firebird is cool too.
You say it how you spell it (which in English is a good point for
conversation...).
Cheers,
Luis.

Hi All,
I'm working on a system that will end up using a multi-user database
served from a central system. While testing I am using SQLite which is
great as I can test all my SQL commands without having to worry about
the additional complication of server connections. When that all works
I will transfer it to MySQL running under MAMP on my desktop and
finally over to the server.
I run a pure OS X shop so I was going to go with MySQL for the final
database as it is a standard part of OS X server. However I have read
posts on this list suggesting that PostgreSQL is a better solution. So
here are a few questions for the exports:
1. Is PostgreSQL better & why?
2. Is it easy to install on OS X (client & server)
3. How do you say PostgreSQL :-)
My system is going to be a relatively small database and not subject
to heavy usage, if that makes any difference to the recommendations.
TIA,
Sarah
