If you hit a wall trying to get intel based boxes to do the job, let me 
know.
I am working on a SunOS port.  It would be fun to see this running on a 
Sun Fire server.
Should be able to scale it to 1000+ rooms.  Only problem, servers run 
from about 50k to a million.
That's like real money.  But it would still be fun.

btw: this is not a very pretty port.  The current state of the * source 
tree does not lend itself
very well to other OS's.  Quite a bit of hacking involved.  Something 
that I would never
want to see checked into cvs.
