I think the question has long been answered. However, out of curiosity (and because they are the questions you should ask yourself anyway), *who* have you heard that from, and what might they not have told you? :-) I can imagine there's zealots from pretty much every database that will be claiming similar things about every project they see as a competitor to be stamped out.
