Is the "best" way to run emacs on Windows XP to use the Native XP build

I find using the Windows-native Emacs or XEmacs in conjunction with the
cygwin tools to be the most versatile. Either way, you have access to
all of the binaries on the path (incl the cygwin binaries). One thing I
really like about the native vs. cygwin versions is that drag-and-drop
of directories or files from Windows Explorer is supported.
