Cygwin has dropped Me, Microsoft 95/98 (support 'till Jun 2006) and NT (dead
now even if you pay).
Typical Microsoft, though...you have to read loads of pages of guff until
you can guess at the true story!

Anyone tried Xwin/Xming on Vista?

And then there is the possibility that loads of people may abandon Microsoft
desktops when/if Apple move to Intel processors on cheap machines, or Gnome
and/or KDE become de rigueur (pigs may fly).

I vote for coding/maintenance for 2000/2003/XP and Vista for the time being,
and can only test on 2003/XP.
