  ** The HOME directory defaults to Application Data under the user profile.
  
  If you used a previous version of Emacs without setting the HOME
! environment variable and a .emacs was saved, then Emacs will continue
! using C:/ as the default HOME. But if you are installing Emacs afresh,
  the default location will be the "Application Data" (or similar
! localized name) subdirectory of your user profile. This change means
! that users will have their own .emacs files on shared computers, and
! the default HOME directory is less likely to be read-only on computers
! that are administered by someone else.

  ** Passing resources on the command line now works on MS Windows.

  ** The HOME directory defaults to Application Data under the user profile.
  
  If you used a previous version of Emacs without setting the HOME
! environment variable and a `.emacs' was saved, then Emacs will continue
! using C:/ as the default HOME.  But if you are installing Emacs afresh,
  the default location will be the "Application Data" (or similar
! localized name) subdirectory of your user profile.  A typical location
! of this directory is "C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data",
! where USERNAME is your user name.
