MySQL. I'm in the thick of using MySQL for some dozen applications and it's been a dream to use such a nice database so my code doesn't have to deal with databases. I have my application and MySQL does the database work.
A beautiful thing and the license is quite the bonus.

I am revamping our website to accept online orders. We have a real estate sign placement service for agents and homeowner, and I meed to have a backend that will manage the order, bill (paypal) and provide reports.
The client would need a log in, be able to see existing orders, request removal or new service.
I also need email nitification of order submitted. and the ability to manage inventory, and have a variety of reporting options.
Not sure if there is software that is tweakable to make these work, or if I need a custom build.
Any suggestios would help.
PS My office is on Mac osX, but am assuming this database would reside on my host server.
