The soviet interest in Afganistan stems from the Soviets wanting a warm water port in the Indian ocean. After Afganistan, the would move into pakistan.
What stability increases have they made over Win2k? From what I have read, slim to none. If your running Win9x/ME, then XP is worth the upgrade (providing your hardware can handle it). But if your on 2k already, you probably wont see any change in stability, just in performance.
Have you ever tried to do a Full Text Search through the 50million records? A reasonably high volume site I know (www.TribalWar.com) that runs vBulletin 2.0 had to remove the Search function do to mySQL crashing the server because it couldn't go through all the messages.
I see a alot of the postgreSQL vs mySQL but not much on MS SQL vs MY SQL. I think 99% of us would agree that Access doesn't complete w/ MY SQL. But how many of you would push mySQL over MS SQL on a MS platform? I've had a chance to use both and actuall run both mySQL and MS SQL on the same DB server. For set up and configuration, MS SQL wins hands down.
As to speed tests, I would like to check some out (both straight SELECTs and queires where row locking is required).
As to the features, it's hard for me to imagine useing a DB w/o Stored Procedures, Views, and SubQueries.

this was up on wired.com earlier this morning.

Can someone explain to me why a Class Action lawsuit would not be appropriate here?
running stored procedures on a database doing hundreds of queries per second is not realistic
huh???
Isn't one of the main points to SP's the fact that they have stored execution plans and therefore execute faster the ad-hoc SQL?
Also, comparing a DB in 2001 to a DB released in 1995 is exactly fair. Thats why I asked about SQL 7 or 2k
