New That postgres link is really useful.
It is very close to the MaxDB documentation. Hmm. I'm getting the idea that multi-versioning databases are letting themselves get walked over by MySQL.

And leave me here to bleed
 
Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life

Please

is the answer to that complex problem of data storage that is obvious and simple and wrong.

New That is the question *I* keep asking MySELF.
Why MySQL? Doesn't really work well.

PostgresQL scales much better and can manage much more data with fewer resources.

No matter how much Microsoft supporters whine about how Linux and other operating systems have just as many bugs as their operating systems do, the bottom line is that the serious, gut-wrenching problems happen on Windows, not on Linux, not on Mac OS. -- [link|http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1622086,00.asp|source]
