| Wait a minute... Cygwin is only supported if you are paying for it,
| such as through a support contract with Red Hat. For information about
| getting a Red Hat support contract, see
| http://www.redhat.com/software/tools/cygwin/.
| 
| That said, Cygwin can be expected to run on all modern 32 bit versions
| of Windows, except Windows CE. This includes Windows
| 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP.
| 
| Keep in mind that Cygwin can only do as much as the underlying OS
| supports. Because of this, Cygwin will behave differently, and exhibit
| different limitations, on the various versions of Windows.
