While that may be true for Apple owners, it's very untrivial to install and properly configure (permissions, etc.) on Windows and Linux.

SqLite usually "just works", can easily be reset if you do something wrong (just delete file!) and has better GUI browsers and tools.

Linux? We're okay thanks. Apt and YUM (and the rest) make installing both MySQL and Postgres very easy.

I was rather surprised to find that installing PostgreSQL on Windows was loads faster and easier than installing MS SQL Server.
