[QUOTE="Bram, post: 102651, member: 17179"] But it doés make sense! There are loads of programs that where for free once and turned to commercial distribution. Microsoft saw Oracle and escpecialy MySQL gain ground so they decided to try and regain it by making more people fermilliar with the SQL Express server. Once used to a database, people like to stick with it. Microsoft will make money wherever they can. As soon as they have regained control over the database market they will start asking money again. I'm pretty sure of that. The question to me is .... when. Edit: B.t.w. ... Everyone who is using Windows XP (legaly) had payed for Internet Explorer and Windows MediaPlayer, you can be sure of that.
