1. Its a real database. IMHO it rivals Oracle, not MySQL/Postgres.

3. If you pay for support, its outstanding.
4. 3 choices for db admin tools: a web server, a cocoa app, and a
java app
5. The database connection library is really simple for you bare

a PyObjC wrapper for it in Python that lets me poke around in
the database using

- Doesn't use index with or-clauses.
- Has problems with some types of joins (extremely slow).
We had also issues with crashes sometimes without being able to

several projects and know the advantages. But I know the
disadvantages as well.
