OT: mysql vs. postgresql



hi,
*PLEASE DON'T MAKE THIS INTO A FLAME WAR*
if you are taking anything personal, please don't reply...

i have always used postgresql for everything. i don't really know why,
but i know that it's a pretty scalable, high-performance database
server that is secure and powerful.

a client of one of my servers has recently requested mysql. i need
postgres, so i'd install mysql in parallel, but i first would like to
know about the negative aspects. from what i remember, mysql isn't a
true database, and security isn't one of it's virtues.

could you shine some light on these and other aspects, please?
