For me I've had too many problems with cygwin and $DAYJOB installs BLODA, so I'm really interested to see what comes of this, also since it uses arch and pacman, which are my distro of choice, it sounds pretty perfect to me! (no more having to recompile everything from source with cygwin or `rebaseall` and suchlike)

Hmm, Have you looked at http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ before. I found this less of a hassle to install and work with, than cygwin.

Hmm... seems interesting, I still like the idea of this foreign-linux, it seems like the idea has a lot of potential. Thanks.
