Okay, I see what the problem with windows is.  Nobody likes the thought
of a game the uses Windows because its so difficult to get good animation
in a window.  No problem.  We don't plan to have any animation beyond the
3-d representation of the galaxy.  The rest will be 'stills'.  Everything
else in the game we're planning is perfectly suited for *a* windows
system (SimCity was mentioned in one of the responses, and this is the
sort of thing we're driving for - minus the animation.  Another example
would be Command HQ).

I think the confusion came when I mentioned 'detailed combat sequences'.
I didn't mean to imply that you fly one of the ships in the fleet, or
some such thing.  The 'detail' comes in your ability to move your entire
fleet, change targets, etc during combat.

PS:  If Borland C++ 3.1 hadn't jumped $60+ dollars since Christmas, I would
     own it by now and wouldn't even be worried about this problem =)
