Unless you are deploying on Windows, why not run it under cygwin? You may end up with a lot of silly problems with file paths, case insensitivity and any other "impedance mismatch" between your development environment and whatever server the workload will run on.
I did a lot of Django development on Windows and Cygwin saved me a whole lot of pain.
