Hello :

Forget my poor english, please !

I am a programmer, coding with Stock Exchange, someone suggest me to use MySQL , and I am not good at Unix, and I am not so sure whether MySQL can do the same work as I used to do .

Did MySQL have trial win32 version ( like 30 days ) ? If yes, how can I get it ? If no, is there a special price for developer ? the way I think is : If it work, I will pay the full price. ( my customer will pay ) If it didn't work, you can keep the special price, and I will return the licence. ( my cost )

Because I am a SOHO programmer, I have no much money to buy each product for develop.

Thanks for read this !

PS: 1.My next project plan to use Java-JDBC-MySQL And my customers will accept the price of MySQL.

2.Or I can help you developing MySQL , because there are many heavy access operation to database when runing a Stock Exchange program, and I can provide something like bug-report, great ideas ...
,etc. ( If you didn't care my poor english ...)
