>>While you might have a point, what makes it different than, say, the article titled "Upgrades make Linux so easy to use", which is obviously a big advertisement in favor of LINUX?

The SQL Server article is actually quite good if you only look at the comparison tables and ignore the opinion/propoganda about SP and the like.

Having observed that MySQL claims to be the "most popular open source database in the world", the author might have done better to have balanced his assumptions with those of a few expert MySQL users who presumably believe that their work with MySQL is also secure and of value despite the "critical" ommission of SP et al.

In view of this, I agree the article probably is "news" on a par with the opinion about ease of installation for Linux.

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.

-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
