> We dont want to peddle Cygwin as thats emulating *nix on windows

Cygwin is a wonderful thing for those of us who have to have W* boxes
around to support customers.  Cygwin means we can make those boxes act
like something decent.  It's also a great way of showing the power of
The Unix Way, a toe-dip in the sea as it were.

Yes to Cygwin, yes to anything that will get folks addicted to Free
Software!!!
