How are PostgreSQL transactions more real than MySQL using the BerkeleyDB or InnoDB? I have to admit I'm not familiar with the differences, but I was under the impression that they were the same.
Also, I think some people might not agree that PostgreSQL is faster than MySQL.
And how is it cheaper? They're both free!
I do agree that Postgres has more features though (missing subselects is almost unforgivable), but MySQL is catching up - apparently version 4.1 (which is scheduled to be out in a couple of months) will have subselects along with a load more features (secure connections! at last!).

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
