I've never used PostgreSQL, but have spent my fair share of time programming against MySQL. It never fails to amaze me how far behind the curve MySQL is, that it still has table corrupting bugs happening frequently in the wild, and how unconcerned its developer pool is about this state.
So from that background, if I were forced to choose between the two for a new project, I'd go with Postgre. I know nothing about it at all, except that it seems to have a good reputation, and it's not MySQL.
Disclaimer: I spend the bulk of my time in SQL Server, and I have trouble understanding why anybody would use anything else out of choice.
