+1!

I pipe up here every now and then and say this - if you want to *learn* OO,
forget about databases.  The whole business of dealing with relational
databases, even with an ORM, can massively distort the domain model.  It's
like trying to learn to drive a car by practicing on an earthmoving machine
with backhoe and dozer blade.  So I would advocate introducing OO in the
parts of one's app furthest from the database.

If the *whole* app is close to the database - well, I wouldn't be the first
to suggest that OO may not be a massive win in that situation.  A seasoned
OO programmer can make it fly, but as a learning experience it's just about
a worst case.
