Hi We are likely to build a desktop application in VB.Net and we are in a hunt to go for a database.We need a free version basically if it dosnt meets our demand then we can go for the developer versions. For our application it may run as client server application may be of 10 concurrent users,with 40 tables of 10000 rows for 2 r 3 tables and others mostly of 1000 rows. We heard about the MSDE runtime version which is free.. How far this PostgreSql suits us comparing to the MSDE or MySql which is also free.. Kindly give me the status..
