How do Allegro and the Simple DirectMedia Layer library compare?

--Hirzel 13:50, 14 Sep 2003 (UTC) Excuse my lack of tabbage; I'm still new around these parts. This is commonly disputed. In general SDL is more common in commercial products. That's the bare facts. You really have to look at both and find what you like best. Allegro is more of a game library then anything, while SDL just gives the basics such as keyboard input, timers, imaging, and add on libraries for networking, sound, et cetera. I do not think there should be a section in the article about "Allegro vs. SDL"... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kanzure (talkcontribs)

Don't remove the signature ;) There used to be an article about Allegro vs. SDL, which was deleted time ago. -- ReyBrujo 02:47, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, Rey. It's been a while. I can see you're still addicted. Yes, that was me. :) -- kanzure 04:52, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

XBOX?

A recent edit added this: "Allegro has been successfully ported to Xbox, though it cannot be released due to legality reasons."

Anyone has a reference for that, and info by who and in what way it was ported? Else I guess that should be removed or somehow marked as unverified info..
