Blame yourself for all the fun you're missing! :-)

CVS works fine under Windows.
I do all my XEmacs work from a native NT XEmacs:
(emacs-version)
"XEmacs 21.1 (patch 13) \"Crater Lake\" [Lucid] (i386-pc-win32) of Wed
Jan 10 2001 on ZJ75T"
The major issue here is whether your workplace allows IP ports used by
cvs (port 2401) and ssh (port 22) to make connections to hosts outside
your company.
