And we all benefit from the pressures applied by open source
Get DB2 Express-C here:

http://www-306.ibm.com/software/data/db2/udb/edition-
expressc.html

"DB2 Express-C, a version of DB2 Universal Database Express
Edition (DB2 Express) for the community, is a no-charge data
server for use in development and deployment. Providing the
same core data server features, development interfaces as well
as system limits as DB2 Express in a smaller package, DB2
Express-C offers a solid base to build and deploy all
applications including: C/C+, Java, .NET, PHP, and more. DB2
Express-C is available for Linux and Windows running on 32 or
64 bit hardware with up to 2CPUs and 4GB of memory."

Unlike SQL Server 2005 Express it has no database size
constraints (SSE limited to 4GB) and the number of processors (2
rather than 1) and addressable RAM (4GB rather than 1GB) is
vastly superior.

"DB2 Express-C is completely "free" to download, develop,
deploy, test, run, embed, and redistribute."

Fantastic. It is also deployable on Windows and Linux!
