I have moved my data from mysql 3 to 4, across various updates, over the
past few years. I use phpmyadmin generally, and it defaults to making tables
myisam.

I can not seem to find a really clear answer as to why I want to use one
over the other.  Generally, I use myisam and change it only when I need to
do a rollback or something like that.

Since I seem to be able to toggle from myisam to innodb without any adverse
affects, why would one chose one over the other?

Is there a way to prevent the use of myisam if it is old and slowly being
deprecated?  I am a host and do not control the table structure of clients
databases.
