Odd... doesn't Access have runtime license costs for production? If
you're not paying those, then I guess that isn't an issue. You could
always reuse an existing system that you have for Access and install
Linux on that computer.
Also, PostgreSQL does run on windows with cygwin installed I believe.
(That's what I've been told... I don't run windows so I'm personally not
sure.)
When you say 'easy', do you only mean installation-wise?
