Well even more then that. The market that Tony is going after he
*thinks* runs Windows, it doesn't.
The majority of people out there that run PostgreSQL are running *nix.
Yes, the majority of downloads we have received over the past two years
is Windows. However that number is completely false because all major
*nix (Including Solaris, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, MacOSX and Linux) ship with
PostgreSQL.
I would actually, probably purchase pgLightning if it ran on Linux but
sense it doesn't.... he is out of luck and frankly, so am I because it
is a good product.
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake
