Regarding the importance of PostgreSQL on Windows.

For example, I am developing a hotel reservation management application

This

Windows,
I need to use either MySQL or Firebird.  Or aI can require Cygwin.  But
that
is a bit over the top IMO, for a small hotel or B&B to consider,
especially
because I want to run it if possible on existing equipment to keep
implimentation costs down.


I'm in a similar situation. My app is currently PG-only (although I _might_ be able to get it work with Firebird eventually). Currently I have to sell Linux to prospective clients in addition to my app. A native Windows version would make my life a bit easier.
