To add to what has been said: ArcGIS 10.1 desktop can now directly connect
to Postgres through a toolbar and read the ST_GEOMETRY type  ... this
*should* essentially provide QGIS's non-plugin Postgres functionality in
ArcGIS.  No need to fuss with SDE or an Esri enterprise  "geodatabase" in
general (Esri's spatial database layer), unless you want direct GUI
functionality or other Esri features (like versioning, etc.).
