What is the date for release of postgreSQL 7 ?
I have been messing with MySQL but I think that I need to learn a real
RDBMS like
postgreSQL instead.  I have Zope, Apache, and MySQL running on my home
server/test box now.  It is just a 233mmx with 96 megs will I be able to
run postgres on the samebox or is the overhead too great ?
