The catch here is that you have a motor per wheel, and thus you increase probability of failure.
I saw a tv report of the Hydro-Quebec wheel motor, about 7 years ago. At the time of the demo they had traction only on one wheel and it worked okay. So having more motors may add redundancy instead. Not bad.
I guess you haven't tryed Chimera, it is not skinable, but use Mac OS X native widgets, a big plus, and Gecko. I guess a big reason for no Phoenix Mac port now is Chimera itself.
This is what I could find in the Mac OS X license concerning Apple hardware:
[...]
2. Permitted License Uses and Restrictions.
A. This License allows you to install and use one copy of the Apple Software on a single Apple-Labeled computer at a time. This License does not allow the Apple Software to exist on more than one computer at a time, and you may not make the Apple Software available over a network where it could be used by multiple computers at the same time. You may make one copy of the Apple Software (excluding the Boot ROM code) in machine-readable form for backup purposes only; provided that the backup copy must include all copyright or other proprietary notices contained on the original.
B. [... something about the Open Source component]
C. [... something about no reverse engineering and the famous "do not use in nuclear facilities"]
[...]
From my point of view, it allows you to install it on one mac, then forbid you from installing it on more than one computer... but it never disallow installing on non-apple hardware... or is my english mistaken?

You're sure about that? Anyway, just intall the OGG Vorbis Quicktime component and it will work everywhere in the OS, including iTunes.
