Oh come on, there are many reasons to use Postgres, but this is just FUD.

Just as an example off the top of my head, take a look at
http://www.livejournal.com/stats.bml (2.5 million active accounts,
367,000 updates in the last 24 hours and all on a mysql backend).

There's a host of other big sites all using MySQL - Yahoo! Finance,
Slashdot (handling 360 queries per second) and others.  If you're
losing data on MySQL with 10 users you have a configuration or coding
problem.

Again, Postgres offers many features that MySQL does not and vice
versa, but to suggest that MySQL shouldn't be used because you'll
loose data is a bogus argument.

Russell.
