Sweet!  It even works on with a Db4o database in client/server mode.

<code>
using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Db4objects.Db4o;
using Db4objects.Db4o.Linq;

namespace DB4oCS.Test
{
  class MainClass
  {
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      IObjectSet        results;
		  
      Server s = new Server();
      IObjectContainer client = s.Client;
      
      client.Store(new Car(1, "red"));
      client.Store(new Car(2, "yellow"));
      client.Store(new Car(3, "yellow"));
      client.Store(new Car(4, "blue"));
      client.Store(new Car(5, "red"));
      client.Store(new Car(6, "white"));
      client.Commit();
	      
      IEnumerable<Car> cars = from Car c in client
                          where c.Color.Equals("yellow") && c.Id > 2
                          select c;
      foreach(Car c in cars) Console.WriteLine(c.Id);
    }
  }
}
