You seem to be very skeptical about open source databases. Well, maybe you
shouldn't. :^)
Some people use MySQL and think it is a good database because it fulfill
their needs. Then, some people use Pgsql and think it is a good database,
also because it fulfill their needs. What you've got to do is to find out
what features you'll be needing and then choose the DB accordingly.
My guess is that you'll end up choosing Pgsql, since you're coming from SQL
Server and probably don't want to loose functionality. But, then again,
maybe you don't need that much functionality and will do better by using
MySQL.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)
