The Internet Football Club is a footy game by Rage which uses mysql as the
backend database. We run this on a Windows NT box and have found mysql good
for 3 million plus rows. However we still split the tables into a day-by-day
transaction basis so we won't exceed 3 million. This is a similar approach
to the idea of splitting the table into separate Universities.

We use php and apache with mysql.
