Well, I dug around a little on the net to see how to fix the screen copy-up on Vista, and it seems things have been muchly fixed in the as yet unreleased next version of Java 6. Released or not, things seem fine with the pre-release:

This is a pretty fast box, hence the 25% CPU with 4 games running at once, however Aero/my video card appears to suck, since the screen copy up is a little slow with 4 games running (which wasn't a problem on my 3 year old machine and XP) - perhaps Microsoft doesn't expect you to have 4 different 30fps things running at once with Aero :-(

Anyways, I'll give it a quick whirl on OS X, then send out some pre-release code to anyone who messages me their email address here; the instructions'll be a bit bare bones, hence the "pre"
