i have cookbook instructions for installing pgsql on
winxp home using cygwin. if anyone is interested, i
will try and post them to web. it took me a month to
figure out how to do it - and i never saw the
instructions all in one place. i had to piecemeal.

i guess the first question that needs answering is if
one wants to go the cygwin pg7 route or the native
windows pg8 route. i will try the pg8 route on a
desktop at home that i just got hooked up to the net.
when i tried to install it before, i had no luck.
hopefully it is more intutitive and the docs are improved.
