Runrev & Microsoft sql server

I am about to embark on a project where we wanted to use a "licence free" database that we could embed in the application or at time of deployment, did not require too much "tweeking". I looked at mySQL but have found this to be quite difficult at deployment. We literally want the cutomer to install the "server version" of the app which will obviously install the database and it components to the server and then the "client" version speaks for itself. I have looked at various DBs such as Pervasive, mySQL, postgreSQL but have recently been pointed to microsoft's sqlExpress.

The application will not have huge amounts of data. It is being developed towards small to medium business.

Does anyone have any experience with sqlExpress? I know that it's free for distribution and does not require licences. 

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what we could use instead?

I could develop in .NET but really like revolution and would like to stick with it for as long as I can.

Thanks
Regards
Nic
