LinqConnect and dotConnect for MySQL is simply awesome and mindblowing. I use LINQa lot with MSSQL, but now with dotConnect and LinqConnect for MySQL, I see no differencein performance or coding. Its quick as a snap and truly love it! I don't think thereis a better product in market for using LINQ with MySQL. Thanks Devart!!!
