I don't have the binaires for Pg ( easy to google for them ) and he is in the 
exploratory stage for an alternative to MySQL on Windows so I offered my 
suggesion.  I think the Oracle suggestion is good too.

But, I have to say,  Amonotod's reply was implying to be rude to me. I think 
poking in comments like "instead of answering your question..." is not called 
for.  Some etiquette would go a long way.  If you can't be nice and helpful, 
then don't reply.  Why are you here? 

I would just as soon remove myself from this list if this is to be expected and 
only Tim and few others should be allowed to comment?

Yeah, and while you're at it, sign up at oracle.com/start for a free copy 
of 10g.  I mean, you know, since we're telling you  what database to 
use, instead of answering your question...
