Summary: Vista Trouble
Comment: SQL Server was a pain to install and get up and running on Vista. The updates required were huge and very time consuming.

Summary: Does not work with Vista
Comment: I bought this product so I can get training in SQL
I have a brand new Vista system from Dell, and it will not install, I get error messages that seem to show it is looking for a Network Server account, and this program is designed to be installed on a normal PC for development, so this should not happen.

Summary: THE Relational Database Software`
Comment: SQL Server 2005 is pretty much the Microsoft standard for server based relational databases. I bought this product in conjunction with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 standard edition, and they are a good pair. If you are planning on doing any Windows Forms based programming, or web programming that requires relational databases then I recommend this product for testing on your own servers during development work.

MySQL and similar are often used for third party web hosts; if you can do SQL with this server software, then you can probably do it with MySQL. This software, however, is for more enterprise level software and web design, and if you are a beginner, then sticking to MySQL is probably your best option.

If you are new completely to relational databases, using Microsoft Access or similar can help you get familiar with the table, key, and relationship structure. Server side databases often times aren't as visual and can hamper learning for beginners.
