Yeah, I thought that question might come up... We are configing a new windows 2000 webserver server and the owner walked up and just asked out of the blue what if we install MySql and not MSSQL. (and no this was not a Dilbert Pointy haired Boss sorta moment.) We have talked about moving to a non Windows platform for our production servers in the future. And since MSSQL only runs on windows we would need to move to another database platform. We are still in the very early stages of mapping out our tech plan for what OS platforms we want to use in production. So, nothing is set in stone just yet. I am primarily just doing research now, so I thought I would ask people who have worked with MySQL and have good and bad experiences.
