I have never tried Sculpture, so I can't say anything pro or con about
it. I have played with My Generations. It is not my cup of tea, but it
can be very flexible if used with NHibernate. If you are heading this
direction, it simplifies things a bit, but you can do everything needed
in NHibernate (after the learning curve). It has been awhile since I
have played with My Generations.
As far as other choices, here is one place you can look for plenty:

Of these, .NET Tiers is one of the simplest to use. I don't like that it
locks you into opening multiple connections on a complex page, however.
The price is right (free) and it is fairly simple.
My faves, thus far, are:
Genome
Subsonic (uses Repository pattern, also open source)
LLBLGenPro (created by a Microsoft MVP and a very nice product)
DevForce
If I were chosing today (I often have no choice as a gun for hire), i
would choose either Subsonic or LLBLGen Pro, depending on budget and
experience of other devs. If I had really good XML devs, I might head
straight to NHibernate, as it allows a lot of flexibility.
Peace and Grace,
