[Tinyos-devel] TinyOS 2.1 install instruction?

[Matt Welsh]

I think you are going to get a lot of pushback if you abandon Cygwin.  
Not everyone is comfortable in a UNIX environment. Would love to hear  
more about Jetos and how big it is compared to Cygwin. (And wouldn't  
it be nice to use an open source solution rather than VMware player?  
Xen?)
