Yes, even though I'm not a DB person.

I particularly liked the MSSQL->yes, I'm running a nuclear reactor.

    "There was a dropped item for every 1,000 transactions" in SQL
    Server 6.5, said Blair, who has uploaded on his organization's Web
    site e-mail messages from Russian scientists detailing the
    problems. "With (version) 7.0, (the problem) was reduced in order
    of magnitude, but it was still a serious problem with dropped
    files."

I cannot understand how 0.1% or 0.01% dropped items isn't a problem.
