Yes, but do you also remember the time we got a letter from a guy who
was really upset with us because of Cygwin32?  He said that it was
possible to run POSIX applications on NT with that, so his employer
insisted on using NT.  If Cygwin32 had not been around he would have
been able to use UNIX at work.
