Quite wrong.  I know mySQL, if anything, a bit better than PostgreSQL. 
I know it well enough that I have run into its limitations, discovered 
that there's no way around many of them, and given up on it as a result.

I might even go so far as to say that the only reason to use mySQL is 
that you're unaware of superior alternatives. :)

Sure -- in InnoDB.  If you need transactions and full-text search on the 
same table, or if you need the speed of MyISAM, you're out of luck.
