Getting Started with a Database

[Charles Hartman]

What platform? On OSX I was in a similar position recently, and I  
settled for MySQL (downloadable) with Blue Mango's (Trevor DeVore's)  
libDatabase 2.0 (ditto). This way's free. The libDatabase isn't  
strictly necessary (it's a wrapper around revdb functions), but it  
makes things a *lot* simpler and more rational.
