For me to install cygwin I had to download the ENTIRE latest directory to my 
hard drive, then delete out .src.* files, and copy it to a zip disk to be 
able to take it home and install it (at home I happen to have a slow 
connection).
I think it was a waste of a lot of bandwidth.  I guess you could say I would 
find the "lazy" way of downloading all necessary files from one directory 
more useful and efficient.
Thank you all very much (all CS computers at BYU have cygwin, so I suppose 
you could call it "well used")
~Roger
