Yes, Cygwin runs fine on my Vista 64 b, also, because of you and the 
other fine folks who make it so. Thank you,
very much.

cygcheck, however, does not run fine when dealing with the registry. 
'cygcheck' claims not to support Vista 64b under 1.5, and maybe that's okay.
And, Vista 64b UAC is sometimes problematic for installs, which is NOT a 
Cygwin problem, AFAIK.

Thanks, again,

Lee
