Does it need it? SQL Server has CLR which means it can be expanded infinitely.

I've been in the industry over 19 years now starting on IBM mainframe of which I served 7 years.

Talk about 'evil empire'.

I am not a blind Microsoft advocate, remember right tool right job; but I will say one thing for Microsoft - they have completely opened up the field of IT and that to me is a good thing - just look at what's happend the BI, its now affordable at the 2 man company level; you get BI for free in the standard edition (£2K).

The adolecent bitching of the other parts of your post show you to be somebody in their infancy within IT with little broad experience so I'll comment no further.
