there is an animal that once looked very much like SQL Server (could be an identical twin). it does run on your favorite flavor of Unix and Linux. it's called Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise :o)

I don't want to replace all of my AIX, HP-UX and Solaris boxes with NT. I'll consider SQL Server as a replacement as soon as it starts operating on Unix. Microsoft operating systems have spurned the whole industry trying to protect them from viruses, which makes them completely unsuitable for a central database of a Fortune 500 company. Does SQL Server work on Linux?

The 4 cd's are available (almost completely) as links in: http://www.microsoft.com/sql/oraclekit Any comments?
