Not me, I'm having troubles running some, like Asteroids, and any of the large resolution dreams.

After installing some codecs I can run dreams like Asteroids, and Crystal Island, but the preview don't work, and I get the mpeg2 codec error message. But the dream runs anyway.

And with Fences hiding my icons, the icons show on the desktop while a dream is running.

Get this. Make sure to get the 64 bit version, if you have a 64 bit OS.
