From the MySQL site's page about MySQL vs PostgreSQL:It's been a while, but I know I've installed MySQL on windows without any separate step of installing Cygwin (I can't say 100% for sure that it didn't install some part of Cygwin transparently to me).What about it? Someone claimed in this thread that MySQL's Windows port requires Cygwin. Is that true or not?

"MySQL Server works better on Windows than PostgreSQL does. MySQL Server runs as a native Windows application (a service on NT/2000/XP), while PostgreSQL is run under the Cygwin emulation."
That seems pretty straightforward.
