+  
+   Because PC hardware is mostly compatible, people tend to believe that
+   all PC hardware is of equal quality. It is not. ECC RAM, SCSI, and
+   quality motherboards are more reliable and have better performance
+   than less expensive hardware. PostgreSQL will run on almost any
+   hardware, but if reliability and performance are important it is wise
+   to research your hardware options thoroughly. Our email lists can be
+   used to discuss hardware options and tradeoffs.
