Awesome.  I suppose if I used a Mac I would be jumping up and down
right now and calling my parents.  (but I'm a lame windows user, so all
I can do is raise an eyebrow, push up my glasses, and adjust my boring
paisley tie)

How much of this is Mac-specific?  Can it be ported to use a library
like SDL or GTK?  Does it work for x86 Macs natively, or through
compatibility mode?

Why am I asking this?  Because if it's portable, then it has the
potential to be more than a MacOS emulator.

Great stuff!  Keep it coming!
