You are the fist one, who comes up with stability warnings towards |
| 11 |
Cygwin, after I am trying for 3 days to get it running with Prefix. |
| 12 |
Checkings are really slow, feels like 1995. |

I tried to collect informations about Cygwin before. Wikipedia writes |
| 15 |
they use it, to compile Sun Java and OpenOffic. That is serious |
| 16 |
software. Isn't it? |

Now what? |

I still believe that the majority of my target group would not spend |
| 21 |
extra money only to feed microsoft. Switching to interix would |
| 22 |
drastically reduce the group of potential users. Still it may be the |
| 23 |
better decision as a large group of frustrated users is nothing good |
| 24 |
itself. |

Guess I spend another day testing Cygwin, to find out how far the |
| 27 |
instabilities really matter. |
