 == Compiling using MingGW-w64 for 64-bit ==
 [wiki:UsersWikiWinCompile Back to Compiling in Windows]
+If you want to get to the last step fast of just compiling PostGIS without having to compile the dependencies,
+you can download our prepared mingw64 bit chain which you can download from  [http://www.bostongis.com/postgisstuff/ming64.zip]
+, extract to C:\ming64
+and edit the file in C:\ming64\projects\postgis\builds\makepostgis20w64.sh
+
+for testing you'll want to initdb the postgres servers in C:\ming64\projects\pgx64 and then run the start stop scripts. Clicking the batch will start
+the postgres server and clicking enter will shut it down.  With that you can jump straight to the section on compiling PostGIS
+
+We are working on similar chaing for 32-bit installation.
