Does it run under Virtual PC?

EDIT: Didn't work for me under VPC 5.0.4 and XP Professional with all updates installed.

Wow, I've been waiting for a program like this. Rendering at various zoom levels is a little slow even on my AMD 64 system, but still very awesome.

Thanks for the link.

All right you programming experts. here is what they have to say about mac and linux ports.

'Since this is open-source, we encourage any OSX programmers to start a port and we will try our best to provide whatever resources we can towards the effort. Right now our development staff consists of one programmer and one graphics designer, but we are an ambitious duo so we will do our very best to please everyone.'

I would love to help but I am totally ignorant in that domain.

A port to OS X might be very difficult since it uses .NET and DirectX.

Nor did it work with 7.0.1.
