Other small recommendations

Install apt-cyg

apt-cyg is a command-line installer for Cygwin which cooperates with Cygwin Setup and uses the same repository.
The syntax is similar to apt-get.
Note, when you copy, and want to insert, then use: Shift+Insert

svn --force export http://apt-cyg.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ /bin/
chmod +x /bin/apt-cyg
