ok sure, and that is great, good for Unity, but is expensive, you need a 
Mac or now a windows and so on...in the other hand, mono is free and if 
someone could make it happen then the rest of us may we can to...so this 
don't answer the question, what are the basic/initial steps needed to be 
able to port mono to those platforms?, sure Unity is the *easy* way,but 
you know I like the hard free way ;-) ...and what about the wii?, also 
Unity is the only answer?
