	Please, at least use the proper name... "Postgres" is a non-SQL
database inspired by Ingres. "PostgreSQL" is Postgres with an SQL query
engine.

	On my side... I have MySQL running on my desktop. When I started,
MySQL had a native build that would run on Win9X; PostgreSQL at the time
required installing a Cygwin environment.

	MySQL v5 has improved a lot from those days (v3)... It now supports
stored procedures, triggers, a form of views, and prepared statements
(though MySQLdb is still pre v5 and sends completely formatted string
queries). They've even added GIS capabilities. (And then there is the
"drop-in" replacement for MySQL -- MariaDB:
http://kb.askmonty.org/en/mariadb-vs-mysql-compatibility/ )

	Then again, I've got too many database engines on this desktop:
SQLite3, Access/JET, MSDE/SQL Server, Firebird...
