I've used a number of version control systems over the last
several years, mostly open source but not all.  My current
favorite is git.  Unfortunately, git doesn't have very good
Windows support right now (hopefully that will change in the
future).  You can run it under Cygwin, but that's not really a
very good solution.

Since you're using Windows on your development machines, the best
open source VCS I can recommend is probably Subversion.  I wish
that weren't the case, because I don't like Subversion much, but
there you are.  In its favor, it does have good Windows support,
including some very nice GUI tools and even direct integration
into Explorer (via TortoiseSVN).
