comment Postgresql on Ubuntu Server and QGIS
Yes and yes. ArcGIS can do spatial queries, and so can QGIS. PostGIS allows you to do these queries in the SQL language. It gives you some incredible power and flexibility. Also, it allows you to do spatial analysis without a GUI interface. Check out some of the questions here what have the PostGIS tag, or google PostGIS queries to see what it can do.

comment Error adding a delimited text layer in QGIS
Sorry about that, that's usually the problem. After you make all the choices in the menu, does your information fill in the sample text box at the bottom?

comment QGIS Print Composer Export problems
It looks fine to me, and Composer exported it to PDF without complaint. Maybe export it out to a new shapefile? Does this shapefile's CRS match the rest of your layers? If not, export it to whichever CRS you're using for the rest of your data.

In Windows 7 you click on your start button, the right click computer, then left click Manage. This will bring up your management console. In that window you'll find an entry for Event Viewer. In the Event Viewer you'll want to scan through the Application log under Windows Logs to see if anything is popping up there from QGIS.

An hour seems excessive. Are any errors being logged in the event log?

Which version of QGIS are you using? How did you install it? It looks like you're using Windows, which version?
