The 700Mhz Dell laptop I just returned to my former employer ran bzflag
like a champ under Win2k - all options on with high quality everything. 
It had a Rage Mobility as well, I don't know if it was Pro, but it only
had 8MB.  Under Linux, it sucked dead donkety dick, but I thgink that
was more due to the fact taht I wasn't using an accelerated X server. 
The odd thing is that my personal identical laptop, running Win2k, sucks
dead donkey dick too.  It's possible that the latest
drivers/patches/whatever are not installed on my personal laptop
(Karin's actually).

Both the Octane and the O2 run bzflag awesomely with different options -
the Octane does great geometry, and the O2 does awsome textureing. 
Never the twain shall meet though, until I get a couple TRAMs for my
Octane (pipe dreams...).
