Au contraire, my romanian brother (hello Romania, wherever you are! I'm from
Ploiesti). As a matter of fact I am a linux fan, member of the romanian
linux users group. And at the romanian linux conference 2003 in mid december)
I had a lecture about Firebird ("Open-source enterprise-level applications:
Firebird RDBMS and Compiere ERP System").
On the other hand, IBExpress indeed is a windows product. But my windows is
in fact a vmware instalation because I found that the marriage between FB 1.5
and Win XP Professional was not meant in heaven (and I'm noreferring to the
.gdb -> .fdb file extension issue). So it works on linux too (in vmware :).
