a fast query is not always enough, if this is your case, then go for mysql.
is you look for full featured db, strong performance (may be you can see a
mysql query is faster some times, but with postgres you get acceptable
response time on every query, no matter how complex it is), great support
forums, true open source (free), and you have talented SQL programmers (you
need to use more than simple sum,left join, case statements) you must go
with postgres, they feel more comfortable with their great PLPG/SQL
language, not the limited functions of mysql (read my previus post on this
thread for details).
