Please do a blog on Linux Mint 10 and MS SQL database. QGIS need more
exposure to hard core MS / ArcGIS users that QGIS is capable in
connecting / using MS SQL server even in Linux and Mac OS X.

Now, I am considering dual booting Linux Mint 10 in my MacbookPro
Retina :-). I am using Ubuntu 10.10 in my (3) triple boot slow Laptop.

Thanks.
