I am very curious about SFU.  But, alas, I am mistrustful of MS,
especially in regards to security.  I'll probaly play with both.  I also
like supporting open-source initiatives, and I still think cygwin is the
easiest/best way to get quick ports of a lot of open-source out there,
such an Objective-C compiler (gcc) or other tools.
