This IS rec.games.programmer, NOT alt.flame.  hey guys, take it outside.

Games are probably some of the most machine specific pieces of software
to program.  You CAN'T write an enitre game in ANSI C and port it
everywhere.  (And I'm not talking about games like Moria or Rogue..) I
have nothing against discussions on non MS-DOS platforms, but the fact
of the matter is, NO ONE has tried to start any.  If you don't like
whats being discussed, then start your own threads and ignore the ones
that you don't care for.  There is plenty of space here for discussion
of whatever you want.  It just so happens that the majority of
discussion has been about the VGA and IRQs and such, but that is because
no one has been discussing anything else.  So stop wasting time and
start some threads that YOU (everyone who doesn't like the current
threads) deem pertinent.
