I simply want to use CouchDB to develop couch apps. I want to use Kanso for couch apps and some other tools that seem to work best under Linux. It seemed like everything on Cygwin/Windows was up hill all the way!
I think once I get CouchDB installed on Linux, I'll be fine.

For Windows support you might want to discuss with Dave Cottlehuber. Dave has put together some good support for windows with his installers here: https://github.com/dch/couchdb/downloads Have you given that a try?
