FA is designed rather for b2b or wholesale than as a waiter POS. But yes, you can use it for cash sale in your company unless you are Walmart owner .

There is no internal limit on number of customers.
No tests in such high load circumstances were documented so far though.

Better security? Why and how? I see no reason to care about Oracle. Some people say it is more efficient with high volume transactions, but MySQL probably is faster on smaller databases. But of course anybody who wishes to spend money on Oracle is reach enough to pay for customizing FA to use it.

Java code is precompiled to bytecode and run on virtual machine. But you can also use precompilers for php with teh same or better effect. Php application deployment and maintenance is far faster and easier.

Yes, it is so simple. Beginning balance is calculated on the fly as a sum of all reconciled transactions with older date (see get_max_reconciled()).

Ok, maybe we should consider this in next release for non-inventory items (i.e. service type items). In mean time you can try to fix input checks in sales_order_entry.php (in 2.3RC1 about line 462-465 remove the price check). I'm not sure about side effects in GL, so no warranty on this advice though.

Thanks gobrien. Is '' instead of 0 in queries forbidden for  MySQL in strict mode?

Yes, for example when your customer want to return goods for some reason after the invoice was paid.

Normally Credit Note is issued for negative sales and invoice is issued by the seller to a buyer.
I'm not sure negative invoice is valid at all from accounting point of view (it is not at least in Poland). Even zero priced items often are treated by auditors as donations and are tax deductible.

Credit note can be issued only for invoices which are not fully credited yet. This is the only constraint. Your customer can claim the quality of products you have sold, so if you accept the claim you can receive goods back or write them off regardless the invoice was already allocated or not.

One problem here is crediting freight costs which cannot be done after all invoice items are credited. In this case you can issue separate credit note  via Customer Credit Notes menu option. Credit notes issued this way are not related to any invoice

Well, database scripts are only those with .sql extension.
Yes, when you install 2.3RC1 you have at least the two COA's installed, so you can select empty (new) or demo version simply with list selector on Install Company page (or during install process for the first company).

Well, it depends on transaction type. In some cases you can store partially entered transaction, then reedit it. But not all transactions are editable, and e.g. for journal entry you can't do it any moment (stored transaction have be valid i.e. Db=Cr).
