Re: Best database(different from the usual "profile")

Okay, I can understand that "names" of the industry might be important for you. But what does that have to do with whether something is pre-installed? 

Not for me. It's different if I say: "Oh, it works with Oracle"(just an
example), instead of "Oh, it works with
$NO_ONE_KNOWS_THIS_OUTSIDE_DELPHI".

Security policies are also different issue. Even if SQL Server were preinstalled you're still going to have to configure what type of security 

I meant to say: would you as a SysAdmin cooperate to install a db server
with no - or almost no - known security issues? I've been a SysAdmin and
known issues are an *absolute* requirement for me. Because those *have*
*patches*. Something "unknown" will rarely be patched security wise,
that's my understanding.
