Here is an open source point of sale system. This one uses the open source firebird database which originated as a borland product. It is very stable and very fast, this system uses it on every till and has a real time backup to a hosted firebird database on a linux server. Keeps the cost right down yet is very fast and reliable. Open source is definitely the way forward for retail software. :)

@David: Is the software open source or just the database? Their website doesn't say much about open source...

It uses an open source database, and the central servers are on open source platforms linux apache etc. The connect software is written in java bit not available open source... yet.
