I was working on the R project (open source statistics stuff), and I was doing most of my GUI development in Tcl/Tk, which was really easy to install on Windows, e.g. using ActiveTcl. I may have just been inexperienced, but I remember really struggling to set up a suitable GTK development environment on Windows, and I started to really appreciate being able to install GIMP for Windows from a binary, rather than from source! Speaking of R, its Windows GUI uses the GraphApp toolkit - that may be fun to play around with for developers prototyping open-source Windows GUIs.
