Hi Casey, have you tried the new pygame build with your PPC computer? I think it should be a fair bit faster than pygame 1.7.1.There's a link to it on the pygame downloads page, if you haven't tried it out.http://pygame.org/download.shtml It'd be cool if you could test it out, because we haven't had all that many testers of it yet.
I gave it a shot (MocOS 10.4), but it is unable to load png images (pygame.error: File is not a windows BMP file). I tried loading a libpng/libjpeg binary and then reinstalling pygame, but that didn't help. Note I do have 1.7.1 installed via fink and it doesn't have this problem.
Is there something else I need to install? -Casey
