Still, that would be awesome from them to release the code for original 
Unreal and (since it is based there off) UT99. A native x86-64 build and 
some other enhancements (like SDL/OpenAL audio) rendering improvements 
and such would be awesome.... Let us just hope that Epic sees this and 
go forward, just as they've been quite supportive of the community by 
releasing their awsome tools for creating new content for the games to 
extend them even furhter and incredibly... Albeit them bein only 
available for one platform.
