Postgres for Mac

[CliffLandin]

Howdy, I am a Linux user and sometime Windows user, but I am doing some work for someone using thier new OS/X G5 Mac. It has been a long time since I have used a Mac, but it is coming back. I am using the Mac to scan in sketches by this artist and cleaning them up in Photoshop. I have offered to put all of the information about each sketch into a database. I use postgres in both Linux and Windows and would like to use it with the Mac, but the Postgresql site is a bit convoluted in this regard.

So that all being said, can I install postgres on a OS/X Mac? If so, how?

Thanks.

When in doubt, go flat out!
