There isn''t really a ''best setup'', per se, but a lot of people seem to prefer PostgreSQL for one reason or another. Personally, I tend to use SQLite in development, but I don''t know how well that flies on an intel mac. -- Alex

I generally recommend PostgreSQL for anything short of commercial deployment. It can also be appropriate for commercial deployment, mind you, but there are commercial databases worth considering for that. --Greg
