Actualy to me, it seems like postgres is a perfect partner for MS Access.
Throw out Jet, and use Pgsql. It's infinately better than Jet, so operating
in a Win98 environment seems reasonable in this scenario.

I swear you could build a business just building MS Access apps on a
Postgresql databases so that they can actualy _scale_ when a business grows.
