PostgreSQL vs. MySQL, was: MySQL premium services?

[Charles Jones]

Eh,  my last experience with setting up replication with postgres was 
not very fun. I have used Slony, and pgcluster, and pgpool. Setting up 
reliable replication with MySQL is a snap, and doesn't require any extra 
tools or daemons.

In the past the biggest advantage of postgres over mysql was that 
postgres supported triggers, views, etc.  But since MySQL 5 I'm not sure 
what postgres has that MySQL does not.

If anything phpMyAdmin is 10 times more useful than pgmyadmin  :-)
