hzs202's Journal: Y10.0702-001 Database Design

Well, this is probably the most boring class I will have this year... uh, well let me take that back. I had a VB class last semester. This course is basically about advanced Data-Modeling, and the principles of database designs for business. Also, the prof. assured us that the course would be universal so using MySQL or OpenOffice will be ok? I have no intention of installing Personal oracle or anything like that on my laptop... in fact OOo should work fine for this course right?
