# but cygwin+nt _is_ a different platform from cygwin+w9x.
I would say that cygwin on Windows is more different from
cygwin on NT than FreeBSD is from NetBSD. Yet the various
flavours of BSD distinguish themselves in that field; they
do not just say "BSD" and put the qualifiers off someplace
else.
OTOH, I would think that cygwin on Windows 98 SE is for
all practical purposes identical to cygwin on Windows
95 OSR2, and I don't know what differences there may
be with XP.
I *think* I agree with the sentiment that too much
information is better than too little. Up to a point.
