The Mingw/GCC compiler is free and would allow individuals to compile Crafty using the option switches that Crafty offers and optimize it for their platform. Since your compiled Crafty is optimized for Intel platforms and does not have DFUTILITY turn on, I am offering this in the spirit of sharing and can write up instructions for your web site. Bryan
