Why Windows?

Softsquirrel is known for developing software for usually only Linux, however this time it's on Windows. But this time it's on Windows, what gives? The reason we have chosen Windows is that: we didn't. We would have gone with Linux but using the Windows API (which is used for some stuff) was much easier than working with the Linux Kernel/X11.
