I personally use emacs under X almost exclusively.  But some cygwin 
users like to use emacs in a terminal.  And I occasionally find it 
useful to do that also (for instance, when I use ssh address@hidden to 
simulate 'su' in order to make a quick edit).  As the emacs maintainer 
for cygwin, I'm trying to make this work as well as possible.

This is a matter of personal preference.  For the kinds of things that I 
do, I find it more convenient to use cygwin emacs.
