PostgreSQL is a multiplatform DMBS. You can download the tarball from
ftp.postgresql.org and compile postgres for MS Windows. There are some
extra requirements for compiling postgres under Windows. For more
information
read the FAQ_MSWIN file in the doc directory of the postgres tarball.

It is much easier to go to http://www.cygwin.com
choose Download Cygwin Now
and install everything.

This way you have a complete Unix compatibility environment for
Windows and a working installation of Postgres.

Cheers,

Colin

There is now a pre-built binary that comes cygwin, available at
