Hmm, how about you run linux and VMWARE. That way you have a virtual
windows machine on your Linux box.

You can then have postgres on your linux box, and whatever windows stuff on
the vmware stuff.

If you got a kickass notebook you can have even more virtual machines on a
virtual network. All stuck in one single Linux notebook..

But I still don't know of good ways to run database servers on Win 9x. Not
recommended :).

Have fun!
