Yeah, it seems i was right, and SUA runs on any SP1 vista.

Interix was what we where using at our company, and so I started porting
prefix to it. Wether this is the best or not was never the discussion
(although I feel that interix behaves more predictable (not necessarily
better) than cygwin. I had more trouble getting software to run on cygwin
than on interix). I can't tell about msys, since I've never used it - but I
think it's not a very complete environment, is it?
