Hi Nick. Please don't be offended, but your question really shouldn't be on this list. Yes, both run on Red Hat, but that's like asking which desktop (Gnome vs. KDE) that people like best. Everyone has their favorite. I will say that PostgreSQL has some very nice features and datatypes that MySQL doesn't yet, but that hasn't kept me from using MySQL on all of my sites. Your choice is completely dependent on what your needs are. Other folks' needs and experiences aren't necessarily the same as yours. Let's hope this thread dies before it gets out of control. -- Jason Dixon, RHCE DixonGroup Consulting http://www.dixongroup.net -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
