Re: hosers-talk: MySQL vs PostgreSQL vs Oracle 8i

MySQL is easy to get running, and fairly portable. I've heard some people
complain about its reliability, but I've never experienced any problems
with it myself. OTOH, I've never put it under much of a load, either. I
know nothing about PostgreSQL, save that code your write to use it will
require almost no changes to work with MySQL. Oracle 8i costs money, right?

I have a copy of the Oracle 8i CD that i got from joining the developer list on redhat.com - in any case it was free! Thanks for your comments.
