Possibly not; but, like it or not, Microsoft Windows has the largest user 
base of any OS on the planet.  For those of us who are forced, out of 
corporate necessity rather than personal choice, to use it, Cygwin is 
probably the most widely used UNIX emulator, allowing us to use our preferred 
UNIXy tools on an alien platform.  You may not consider it a measure of UNIX 
compatibility, but you certainly can't ignore it as a measure of portability.
