a service *is* a type of process.
yes, you could setup postgres to run in a command line window within a
desktop session, starting and stopping it with pg_ctl ... you'd want to
create a user specifically for this, and have that user own the postgres
data directory. you would need to leave this user logged onto the
console at all times, or postgres would exit when the user session
terminates.
