FYI I use Postgres on my laptop when working - it's small enough to run locally and supports all the true RDBMS functions. The great thing is that it can then be deployed in production so you're actually using the same DB to develop on.
Not sure how it runs on Windows though - never tried it - my laptop runs OSX.
