Well, the "basic security stuff" might be great for you admin types, but
as I only use the Cygnus stuff at home for personal and school projects,
it's annoying to have to have certain of my files on C:\, which is the
drive I use for the business, while all of the rest of my coding files are
over on E:\, which is the drive I use for such things. 

I've even tried remounting '/' as E:\ or as some subdirectory, but mount
always gives me a "Mount failed:  Device or resource busy." 


See ya around the Mulberry bush.
