Good job dude linking that up. I've followed it since I accidented upon the Windows (java...ugh) port of it shortly after it went online when the SC source was made open to tinker with due to the OLPC. It's so fantastic being able to play the original game. Despite all the pomp and pretty stuff along with all the added layers of bs since, I still believe it to be the most fun and just relaxing (or not on hard) game to really sit back and enjoy though SC2K takes a strong second. It's so basic yet not, but definitely not overly complicated with lots of added bs like underground management, trash pickup and handling, wonky tunnel and bridge making mechanics that plagued 3000 too.
There's a chrome version of this that plays in your browser too that was (is?) in development. I'd love to see someone lift it and make a free download android version as I'd so put it on my nexus 7 tablet.
Has anyone had any luck with the facebook version? I have no idea if I have to be an IE using suck up or whatever but I could never fire it up in firefox or chrome.
Edit: Forgot to add this, here's the browser version that does work: http://micropolis.mostka.com/ (the links off your post there up top are all dead (facebook, web, etc.))
