As for the device independent stuff, wouldnt that require more memory, more processing power, and more ram? j/c.

man people who LIKE windows, unless xp, really are beyond me, why run unix?! OMG! unix is the best playform ever i have 4 systems in my office running unix. It can stand a beating and its WAY more secure than Windows. Second of all there are emulators for linux, its called wine
and thats what i use now, i am almost completly linux dependant, except for a few of those programs that are really retarded and when ever you try to run them anywhere besides windows 95/98/SE it crashes or says "This can only be run in windows", there should be another button called "try anyway" instead of just "cancel". If anyone is interested in running graal on their linux system,
http://www.winehq.com and if you want to get linux,
http://www.slackware.com/, however if this is your first linux install and youdon't want to do more than you need to, go to your local software store and pick up redhat 7.2 its the greatest, but if u want to play more gaming stuff, get mandrake 8.3.
and btw rotating is awesome i think it should be made.
