Latest version would work on any PowerMac capable of running Mac OS X 
10.3, which is a minimum requirement.  Any Mac that can run 10.3 should 
be capable of running Catakig fairly well.  I've used it quite speedily 
on my 500MHz Powerbook G3.

It states on this page
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/catakig/>
That all POSIX (Linux/BSD/UNIX-like OSes) are supported, but I didn't 
see any source code available, but then I don't really do programming so 
I haven't checked out the CVS setup.

PS.  Michael, it does sound good.  Haven't done too much with it as I 
just tend to hook up a IIc to the TV to play games...  Thanks though...
