I spaced this! I would second Oracle express as both very capable and easy
to use.

Oracle express is free (4G limit) and you could learn some transferable
skills playing with it.

I'm migrating from M$ WinXP to openSUSE 11.0. At the moment I'm looking
for a db for simple personal use.

I have a music collection db in M$ Access. There are about 1900 records
w/ six variables. The collection is mostly vinyl LPs (i.e., entered by
hand) with another 2000 LPs not yet in the db. If possible, I'd like
to do a simple import w/ minimal clean up to avoid re-entering the
existing records.

What are the recommendations for a db and how best to accomplish the
migration?

TIA,
Mark Z.
