I never tried the Postgres Win2k binary because:
- I'm on Win98
- I assumed that I'd have to build everything, including the postgres driver for aolserver, from source with the same compiler to make it work
- I was pretty sure that cygwin would make it straightforward to build aolserver as well. Never got to test that assumption.
- Having cygwin installed and working on my notebook would hopefully give me convenient access to lots of other unix-based software in the long run, without having to reboot into linux.
