I've used Image::Magick on windows in all possible modes, with cygwin,
activestate, strawberry, custom-built perl - always there was a problem
how to install the ImageMagick binaries properly, which pixel type (8 or 16
bit), include and lib paths, etc etc. Also it seems to me that versions 
announced on ImageMagick's home page and on CPAN are often than not have
different versions, and don't work together. So  I found that the path
of least resistance is to install ImageMagick binaries with sources,
and compile its perl frontend from there, not from CPAN.

My point is, it's great news that Strawberry is friends now with
ImageMagick, I'm just curious if this also solves any of the problems above.
And we can always talk to ImageMagick guys to include Perl/ImageMagick.dll
that works with Strawberry to avoid version conflict between their distro
and CPAN.
