MySQL: Better documentation, larger userbase (so you can find people who
already know about it, more stuff works with it etc.), better ODBC drivers
(you can use MS Access to connect to it and make simple forms etc.),
although there is a commercial ODBC driver which is supposed to be quite
good.

Firebird: Much better database product. MySQL doesn't even come close to
competing at the database level.

What on earth do you mean by a "pseudo peer2peer mode"?
