Possibly not; but, like it or not, Microsoft Windows has the largest user base of any OS on the planet. For those of us who are forced, out of corporate necessity rather than personal choice, to use it, Cygwin is probably the most widely used UNIX emulator, allowing us to use our preferred UNIXy tools on an alien platform. You may not consider it a measure of UNIX compatibility, but you certainly can't ignore it as a measure of portability.
