Installing PostgreSQL on WEPOS

Hello people

I was wondering if it is possible to install PostgreSQL on a WePOS Operating System. MS says anything installable on XP can be installed on WePOS as well, but I am not sure if it is correct.

Actually I am considering to develop a POS software and for its hardware I thought to get a WePOS OS, but MS SQL Server is very expensive and so are other DBs I just thought if it is possible to have PostgreSQLas a free option to reduce costs.

I would very much like to hear your views please help me out here guys.
