Git's Windows capability is pretty darned good now.

I think it was the last of the big 4 to add this. Hopefully Windows compat is no longer a reason to choose one DVCS over another.

And in more recent news, the TortoiseGit project, though only a month and a half old, is rapidly approaching a useable Windows GUI for Git that integrates into the shell, so it should be ready fairly soon even for Windows user who insist on a GUI (where I work, we have several people who do content who need to commit, so for now we're still using Subversion for them, but we'd love to move everything to Git so we're following TortoiseGit and the other similar projects fairly closely).
