I first the first time today looked more in depth at the packages
available in Cygwin as I was seaching for gdb to use as my debugger in
emacs. I found emacs in the package list!.

Found this wiki page
http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki?CygwinizedEmacsHOWTO though its
layout is a little bit confused, it tries to advise on using emacs in
cygwin. Before I venture down this path are there many people using
this package? Is it advantageous to use this package(cygwin)?  Or is
there not much upside to a user using the default 23.2 zip package?
