Hi :) Lol! I liked that post. Very funny. I thought PostgreSQL was for large databases? Also i thought Firebird was supposed to be quite good? I think that really is a large one though so possibly not what i am looking for. I'm hoping it is because i think one of my bosses is buying a front-end that uses it and i was hoping to use the same back-end for other databases.
