    I object against defenestration of my computer: I find windows very
    handy as long as they are not capitalized.

There are two ways to defenestrate your computer:
throw it out the window, or throw windows out of the computer.

    Anyway, from what one hears, Cygwin is a great missionary for free
    operating systems: it gets people hooked on free software running at a
    quarter of the speed 

I believe you, but the point is, he doesn't have to _keep_ using
Cygwin.  He can move to GNU/Linux.
