Hi Jayadevan,
We're adding to our server farm, which is Windows. We use Windows as our application is .NET based, and related components in our systems require Windows. Switching to *nix is not an option.
I'm just after some assurance that all the extra 32bit components in Postgres will run OK under 64bit Windows. I mean allegedly *anything* 32bit is supposed to run under 64bit, but it's not always this simple in practice.
-Brendan

Any specific reasons for choosing Windows? Once in a while, I see someone
posting issues about PostgreSQL on windows and replies which go 'Windows?
hmmm...not sure about that ..". Of course, those were not questions about
queries/query tuning etc. Those get answered. These questions mostly deal
with crashes/recovery/security related and so on.
