Hm.  I'm going to guess that you've already decided on how you want to 
implement something ("I'll use the x, y and z APIs on Win32") and aren't 
looking at _what_ you want to do.

Consider taking a step back and determining what it is that you want your 
program to do, _then_ consider how you want to do it.  You may find that 
you're limiting yourself to the Win32 API and platforms when you really 
don't need to.
