   Amazon - Enter MySQL - 412 hits. The first screen of books are nearly all
devoted to MySQL.
     Enter Postgres - 94 hits. None of the books on the first screen seem to
be devoted to Postgres, but just mention it incidentally.

   Google - Enter MySQL - 15.6 million hits. Postgres - 733,000 hits or less
than 5% of the MySQL hits.

Admittedly these are just rough comparisons, and I think Jonathan's
statement that MySQL books sell much better is a much more reliable
statement.

A quick check of
Amazon reveals several books devoted to MySQL, but I don't see any devoted
to Postgres.
