off topic: anyone form Amsterdam, Holland / other major european

Hi !
Sorry for this off topic posting.

I will probably be offered a "Solaris sys admin / Oracle DBA" position in Amsteram, the Netherlands.
Unfortunately , i have no idea of what order of magnitude salary should i get / request.
I have 6 years of experience in the field. So i wanted to ask the list memebers ( who are from Amsterdam or other major European cities , which is compatible to Amsterdam in terms of costs of living / salaries) a couple of questions:

what would be a reasonable salary for a relocating person of my qualifications ?

What is the living cost there , i.e. an appartment to rent , food , leisure, travel , taxes ,etc.. ?

How does Amsterdam compares price-wise to other Dutch cities and to other European capitals ?

Thanks a lot in advance to everybody who will respond either directly to me or to the list.

Cheers.

P.S : Please forgive me if this off topic question bothers you ;-)
