Hi,
In regards to the comment about Sybase and SQL server, I did not know that. Are you saying that there are free drivers for SQL server ODBC on OSX from Sybase? If so where can I find these!? The reason I ask is that the openlink SQL server drivers start at $99 and really for many uses you would need the $495.
This is one thing that I wish Apple would take the lead from Microsoft and provide all sorts of ODBC drivers with the OS like Windows does. I mean really what good is an ODBC manager without a driver???
Great article by the way.

The point I was making in the comments was that it was possible to connect to these db's from OS X, not that the drivers were free or cheap.
I agree that Apple could be a lot more proactive about including ODBC features in general in OS X.
Glad you liked the article.
