Just to jump in....
I use a Solaris?Sparc system and a Debian Linux for hosting and webside interfacing to games, and I usually use WinXp for the player/client side. I would be thrilled if Dom3 continued to support all of them. But apparently Illwinter has announced in a news article that Solaris will not be supported. However that only means they dont plan to create a solaris install and do solaris testing/debugging. It may still be possible to get it to work on one. Especially a Sun running something else other than solaris.
Im thrilled to see some Basics mentioned. I did my Dom1 stuff in BWBasic on the linux, and for all the stuff on my Dom2Minions site thru to the present I use YaBasic for linux scripting and CGI. Especially since its dual compatable to Windows and allows me to compile EXE's. I dont see any reason to switch for the Dom3 stuff.
And people with fond memories of my site. I have had Dom3Minions.com registered for nearly a year now.
