[ale] WooHoo!! PostgreSQL 9.1!

[Doug Hall]

Oops. A few years ago, they based their prices directly on ORACLE's
pricing structure. This may have changed now. There's a customer
comment that says they're 1/6 of the price, but I haven't seen an
official statement that says that. Just look over their plans in the
"store" link.
