[fpc-other] Firebird vs PostgreSQL

[gabor]

I think you should ask the question "which database is best for my 
project". The selection of database should depend on the assumptions and 
requirements of your project. For some projects you only need SQLite. 
But for another project you will need Oracle. And in another you will be 
doomed to what your customer already has.
