Poll: What is your primary desktop OS? 13 years ago
From my experience, Cygwin can pretty easily be tuned to the state of fitting almost all the needs of an average developer looking for a *nix env at Win platform. The problems start appearing when you need to somehow integrate Win apps with Cygwin apps. For example, the idea to run Cygwin's ruby|python|php|gcc|whatever directly from Sublime Text can take a lot of figuring it out on how to do it.
cmd.exe in its turn lacks a portion of basic functionality, like tabs, for example. A 3rd party apps, like Console, can help solve this problem, but in its turn, they have their own issues. Console, for example can have noticeable delays when rendering output.
