Message Board Madness

I'm planning on placing a small message board app on my website, but I have a small dillemma: shell out some bux to the web hosting company for SQL Server access, or write an XML data layer for my forum to store data in.
Anybody out there have experience with this? Something tells me that the XML route might be a major pain, especially if we're talking high-volume. But, it might be a cheap solution for my site if I kept the membership low. Anyway, I'm open to horror stories or victory stories and what-not about XML-based message board apps.
In other news, Hayley, Andy, and Andy Jr. stopped through on their exodus back to Wyoming from Florida. Sounds like it was a rough trip, but I enjoyed hangin' out with them and finally getting to meet my nephew! Andy Jr. is an awesome little baby. You can tell he's going to be smart and tough just like his mom and dad. I posted baby pics at my Flickr account.
Anyway, that's all for now! Will report back when the holidays are over. Out.
