This is great news! We target Windows too with out game, so it could make
our lives a lot easier. It's a fact that people are lazy, they won't surf
around and downloed a lot of stuff just to test a new game. I usually give
a new game about 15 minutes time in which is must start working, otherwise
it'll be given "rm -rf". I may have missed a few good games because of
that, but mainly I've saved a lot of nerves...

Good work Pete!
