I've been working with postgresql for the last 8 months. I dont really like it though I've gotten used to it now. One thing that sucks in pgsql is the DB-link package. I feel MS SQL Server DBLINKs are way better.
I cut my DB teeth on Oracle and mysql, and have worked with MS SQL server for about 2 years before we moved to postgresql, so I may have a bias but I have to say I'm not terribly impressed with it. One nice thing I found a few months ago was the acquire lock functions in pl/pgsql. This was useful at the time.
