    would express do?
    you could download for free from the MS website?

    you might be able to get developer as well

    Im just trying to download that now
    i think that only allows 5 concurrent connections though

    will express allow connections from my webserver ?

    Do you use a DB mapping tool or relational persistence tool like Hibernate?

    You could have changed your DB to an open source solution like mySQL or PostreSQL temporarily for the demo.

    how did you get on?

    five connections should be fine for a demo (but I don' think Express has a connection limit)

    what sort of company doesn't have backups, advance notice of demos ?
