Jason is showwing his own personal bias here.. :)

There is a binary w32 installer thanks to Gibby Koldenhof:

   http://sourceforge.net/projects/mni-minc-win32/

However unless you are running XP then things such as pipes and perl are going
to be a bit of a pain.  In this case you would be best of to use Cygwin.  All
the core minc tools compile with no modifications under cygwin.

If however you have some trouble compiling for cygwin I can provide a tar.gz of
everything that I have compiled for cygwin.
