I have not yet found a theming engine for Windows an Linux that even comes close to what was done with that little CDEV, especially in regard to irregular window shapes.
As roguelikes go, I'd say ZAngband. 142 players posted on the Angband Ladder, and only three of them won. Haven't played it myself, but I've played Hengband, a derivative which also only has three winners (out of 126.)
Genuine Amigas had an arsenal of specialized A/V chips that allowed for some cool effects far ahead of their time, like the trademark bouncing ball. I'm not sure if these newer ones still do.
In addition, it's my understanding that the varieties of hemp grown for textiles and other industrial products are next to useless for recreational purposes.
I'd say the Mac had that convention locked down a few scant years earlier. Up 'til System (another name chock-full of unprecedented creativity) 7.5 or so, practically every piece of software that ran on the computer started with an M, followed by two other letters I'm sure you can guess.
What hardware store do you visit where a GeForce2 MX-400 is $200 and a Slot A Athlon 750mHz/motherboard/memory are $800? Because they seem to be working fine for me (although particle effects are a bit choppy.)
Once upon a time, I was a happy FreeBSD user who submitted a trivial port update to gnats. I waited three months. I waited six months. I waited nine months. When it was finally committed, a newer version of the software package then my update had since been released.
Shortly after, I switched to Gentoo, which is usually very prompt in getting the newest software into unstable portage. I can't say I've never looked back, but even hearing the bureaucracy has since improved, I don't feel like giving up my USE flags in favor of "WANT_KITCHEN_SINK=1" again.
I like the BSD design philosophies better and didn't really notice the lack of drivers everyone complains about, so if Gentoo/BSD matures to the point of usability soon, I'll be first in line to try it.
I haven't been able to find another RPG that quite captures the mood and attention to detail of FTL's Dungeon Master games. There's several nice fan remakes of the first and its expansion pack, but I prefer the second, so I'm stuck with my good old Amiga emulator for the time being...
PAL has about a hundred lines of extra vertical resolution.
It runs at a slower frame rate then NTSC, but this rarely makes a noticeable difference, because most filming is done at a yet slower rate then either of them.
And it has a better color system, yes, but I don't know the details.

Kaleidoscope.

Solaris isn't open source, genius.
I'll rephrase that for you: Why can't *anyone* (except Apple and Sun, if they count) sell a dual-processor solution to desktop users?
I imagine VIA's chips would be prime for this.

Nope, Dragonball is a Motorola product based on the 680x0 series. I have an old Palm Pilot with one inside. I think China's CPU is the "Dragon Chip."
Yup, except datestamped in the mid-1980s, not last year.

Actually, a sequel was made for the GBC, but I've heard it really sucks (as does the GBC port of the orifinal.)

It's 5 bucks a pop if you rent. :)
"Double-clicking a font file shows a full preview as well."
I think it may require a third-party package called Fontilus.

Their PC friends got the game years earlier? News to me. Did you mean XBox?
I would rephrase that as: How many 5 year old games have you paid $50 for?
Of course, part of that being such a low sum is publishers' faults for not giving you the opportunity.
Well, it's okay with me because they chose some half-decent hardware to lock me into.

Correct, because everyone knows Debian and Gentoo are nobody.

I'm sure you'll get along excellently.
NetBSD's claim to fame is running on everything from your PC to a dead squirrel in a cardboard box.
When you're in retail business, you can't waste valuable time doing all that math. It's much easier to just double the price.
...Um, my understanding is that ECS and PC Chips are the same company.
However, I've never had any problems with my ECS board either, despite what people say about them (and SiS's chipsets.)
