Hi, Jeff,

I know Postgres on NT is not as stable as on a UN*X system so far.
Some friends of mine works on NT platform, they just want to learn SQL,
but you know, almost databases on NT are commercial, they are expensive
and they cannot pay it just because they want to learn SQL, right?
Now they can run PostgreSQL on NT, and study more fun :-)
Becuase Postgres is *free* and *open source*, so that's why I port
PostgreSQL to NT.
