[techtalk] need database recomendations

[Julie Meloni]

We use MySQL for all of oour database-driven/e-commerce sites, and it's
the example database used throughout my soon-to-be-published PHP
Essentials book (although PHP's other database functions are documented
as well...).  

However, I don't do really well in holy wars, so I'm just offering the
URL to this database comparison mechanism.  I use it when sitting with a
client, to show them how much money we'll be saving by not buying
Oracle. :)  It's unbiased, even if it is run by the mysql folks; it'll
give you honest comparisons.
