title: choose MySQL or choose SQL Server Express (free)?
body: <p>I need to develop a mid-sized Inernet facing web site (e.g. less than 1000 users) for information sharing and simple workflow. Since limitation of budget, I am choosing free database. And since the developers are familiar with .Net, C#/ASP.Net is the choosen programming language. I am using Windows Server 2008 x64 edition as OS.</p>
  
  <p>I want to know in my situation, pros and cons about using MySQL or SQL Server Express (free)? I think conclusion may be different to different people/perspective, but learning the facts (pros and cons) will be benefit for me to make decision.</p>
  
  <p>thanks in advance,
  George</p>
