Additional SQL Server sample databases to practice with

I'm helping a friend learn SQL, and need more databases to help him get more practice. We have of course AdventureWorks, Northwind, and Pubs.
Does anybody know of any other SQL databases samples that might be available to download? I know some sites have some databases where you can practice queries on the site, but I was looking for something he can run locally.

Solution

  • Here's one called the Chinook Database. It has scripts for SQLServer, Oracle, MySQL, SQLServer Compact.

    As I find more, I'll post here.
