I have a project that I want to do with python. It involves a database
table with  some 100,000 rows, total size about 400MB and climbing. I
will be adding about 700 rows a day, and occasionally want to do a
query, but only occasionally. (I am putting all the posts from an active
newsgroup in to a db for data gathering, and to learn python and sql
stuff) But I don't know which db module would work better for me?I am
running this on a linux box, and cross platform is not a big deal, I am
looking at both postgres and mysql. Since I have 0 experience with
either one especially in context of interfacing with python. I'd like
suggestions please. 

thanks all
