Absolutely "start with last". I am happily using OpenLink drivers under both
OS 9 & 10, for both Postgres and Sybase, with no problems.

I tried the other brand that still supposedly supports Mac, and it was such
a steaming pile of crap I can't believe they had the gall to ship it. (As
in: as soon as you finish configuring a DSN, it disappears never to be seen
again, so you never actually get to a point where you can use one.)
