Ain't nothing wrong with MSDE2000 - it's freely available (if you poke around enough you can find a couple places where you can get it as a free download from MS), it has all the functionality of full-blown MS SQL Server 2000 (the only limitations are no databases > 4GB, no clustering, etc. - not things you are going to hit on a small database), and it kills MySQL in functionality.
Being forced to use Access as a front-end though - I personally would take as an insult to my abilities as a software developer (and I don't even do it profesionally)
