No, I don't think this was the case. Luxo came out in 1987. Then John Lasseter wrote a paper entitled "Principles of Traditional Animation Applied to 3D Computer Animation" which he went over the traditional principles of animation a'la Disney. This included Luxo wireframes and so forth. Then Witkin and Kass wrote "Spacetime Constraints" in SIGGRAPH 1988 that synthesized Luxo jumps using an optimization technique sharing the title of the paper. Then, in 1995 Gritz and Hahn wrote "Genetic Programming for Articulated Figure Motion" which they reproduced the work of Witkin and Kass using a genetic algorithm to mutate controllers for kinematic chains. In fact their work did essentially what this article speaks of.
Finally SpaceWar gains the respect it deserves. I found this version a while back, and I was pleased to see it. I've always been interested in SpaceWar and its roots ever since I read Hackers. I even wrote a clone for the TI-85:).
A 486 is more powerful than you might think. Until recently, we ran a 486 dx4/100 as a web server serving over 1,000,000 requests/week quite easily. The server also ran postgres and as many as 5 shell logins usually. Granted, it didn't compile real fast, but hey...

Wine is an implementation of the Win32 API.

Yeah it's for zshell... Why don't you send me an email at aselle@ticalc.org, and we can talk further.
