MySQL is open source and free, the enterprise edition offers additional
features and 24/7 tech support but there is nothing wrong with the free
edition. You can find more information as well as download links at <a
href="http://dev.mysql.com">http://dev.mysql.com</a>, although it is
also in the Ubuntu repos which is my preferred method of installation.<br>
