Here's what I added. It needed to be a bit smarter than just a
'source', because not every user will have a _vimrc_XXXX file. Also,
what is annoying, is that the same string cannot be shared between
'let', 'filereadable()' and 'source' - crazy! filereadable() expects a
variable and objects to a string, and let and source have incompatible
formats!

let vimrcu = 'c:\mosaic\_vimrc_'.$USERNAME
if filereadable(vimrcu)
source c:\mosaic\_vimrc_$USERNAME
endif

Think green - keep it on the screen.
