commit    48eaa34d443733735eeaabfb876895fecd03c29e
Author:   Magnus Hagander <magnus@hagander.net>
Date:     Sun Jan 10 15:54:11 2010 +0000
First released in: 9.0.0, 8.4.3

    Update Windows installation notes.
    
    pginstaller isn't used anymore, in favor of the one-click installers.
    Make it clear that we support Windows 2000 and newer with the native
    port, instead of first saying we support NT4 and then saying we don't.
