 The tutorials provided here are set up for machines running 64-bit Windows 7 or Mac %%OS%% X. If you want to use Linux or some other %%OS%% you will probably need to compile some of the low-level loading functions yourself. Some pointers for this are provided in subsequent modules when loading is introduced. The tutorials provided here are set up for machines running 64-bit Windows 7 or Mac %%OS%% X.
