I just tried it and everything seems to be OK. (OS is Windows 2000.) There were a couple of minor points that may not actually be bugs but seem a little odd. One is the big blank space on the left of the first window, which looks suspiciously as though there was meant to be an image there. (Screenshot: http://storm.net.nz/~ross/temp/cygwin1.png) The other is that downloaded packages are being saved under a directory named for the download site, instead of all going into common "contrib" and "latest" directories as they used to. Was this intentional?
