Officially, Magento [Varien] says : Magento is a feature-rich eCommerce platform built on open-source technology that provides online merchants with unprecedented flexibility and control over the look, content and functionality of their eCommerce store… bla bla bla
Well I think Magento is an incredibly huge, feature packed eCommerce Platform. Its not for mickey mouse shops nor is it recommended for small budget hosting platforms. if you have less than 500 products to sell; leave Magento alone… stick to Joomla’s Virtuemart or WP eCommerce or something…
