MySQL had Windows support and GUI installer for a long time before PostgreSQL. I wouldn't touch MySQL before version 5.0, and in my company, I only use it for email. All customer databases are PostgreSQL. It just works.

Stop being such a stone-head. Jeez!

Been there. I'd rather put a bullet to my head than live with a spinal headache for an extended period of time. I'd say it was a 14 on the scale of 1-10. Worse things I've ever experienced in my life ... even after 2 back surgeries!

Mine is a piece of crap too. Luckily my employer pays for it.

FWIW, I moved to a location that AT&T didn't cover and they had no problem whatever in canceling the contract without an early termination fee. In fact, they TOLD me they weren't going to charge me the fee. All I did was give them the address of the new place and they verified it on the phone. No issues at all.

Couldn't agree more!

Agreed. greylisting is very effective. That and checking SBL/RBL et al go a LONG way to keeping things at a sane level.

Speaking as a guy who lives rural, I have dial-up on my new property and a 900 MHz radio shot to an ISP serving rural central Virginia at my current place. That can get up to 1.5 mb max and I am damn glad to be able to get half of that! Satellite is okay for some, but the latencies are a killer for anything SSH/SSL related.

It's all a matter of depth perception.
