^^^^^^^^
Isn't that term often employed with a perjorative attached? (by
Alcoholics Anonymous ;-)

Seriously, how about:

PostgreSQL
The most advanced database engine available -
on CD and by free download!

[ http://www.postgresql.org ]

This example may be trite but the good bottom line is also a hook.
I also like the flaming logo/slogan (can't recall where I saw it):

The future of relational databases is here: PostgreSQL.

Cheers,
