That depends on the host Operating System. Drivers/source are
available for current versions of MS ODBC, unixODBC, and iODBC.

Or, better, buy a copy of C.J. Date's "A guide to the SQL Standard."

Um, the definition of "row" in a database is unambiguous. One row =
One Tuple. I can't make it any clearer than that.

FYI, most operating systems limit single files to 2GB or less. As
such, no table -- and thus no row -- in a Postgres database running on
that operating system can be larger than 2GB. But it's hard for me to
imagine a row that is even 1MB, let alone 2GB, so I don't think you
need to worry.

See http://advocacy.postgresql.org/

I believe that their is an Italian version of that page, as well.
