This is called a portfolio effect. Unless we release PostgreSQL, pgAdmin3,
PhpPgAdmin3 bundled under Win32 and Unixes, we will always face this kind of
problem.
User ask questions such as "is PostgreSQL faster than MySQL?", but in fact
their real need is a database system with a nice administration interface
(web or GUI), which works under any environment (Unixes and Win32).
