Even better, IMHO: produce a native Windows build (*not* Cygwin), wrap 
it up in a fancy installer, and sell it to Windows users, for maybe $100 
- $200. I bet this would make far more money than gedaconsulting.

Steve's pretty much there already, but I suspect that the gschem/pcb 
developers would be unimpressed by this.
