It runs pretty good on my ALX, I don't have any real problems with it.

It's always been an issue for developers. They have the ability to takes things to the next 3 levels, it's just that everyone doesn't have the hardware to run it, so they scale back and add options for lower end systems.

The old Janes series games, when released, had resolutions nobody could run. Eventually hardware caught up. Three years from now my high end system will be sitting in the garage next to my Kaypro CP/M luggable machine.
