I've heard it said that MySQL is the ideal database for programmers
who don't understand databases. No annoyances like stored procedures
and server constraints to get in the way of your application code
scribbling all over the tables. ;-)
Of course, I gather MySQL has improved a fair bit in terms of
features, especially with the addition of the InnoDB engine, so it's
not a fair assessment of MySQL any longer. But I suspect it is still
a fair assessment of most of the "Learn PHP in 27 seconds" crowd....
