+\section{Supported Platforms}
+ScummVM has been ported to run on many platforms and operating systems.
+Links to these ports can be found either on the ScummVM web page or by a
+Google search. Many thanks to the effort of porters. If you have a port of
+ScummVM and wish to commit it into the main CVS, feel free to contact us!
+
+Supported platforms include (but are not limited to):
+
+\begin{tabular}{ll}
+UNIX &(Linux, Solaris, IRIX, *BSD)\\
+Windows \\
+Windows Mobile &(iPAQ and other handheld devices)\\
+Mac OS X \\
+AmigaOS \\
+BeOS \\
+Dreamcast \\
+PalmOS \\
+Playstation 2 \\
+Playstation Portable\\
+RISC OS \\
+Symbian \\
+\end{tabular}
+
+The Dreamcast port does not support Curse of Monkey Island, nor The Dig.
+The PalmOS port does not support Curse of Monkey Island, Beneath a Steel
+Sky, nor either Simon the Sorcerer 1 or 2. The Dig will only work on some
+Palm devices (those with a large dynamic heap).
+
+In the Macintosh port, the right mouse button is emulated via Cmd-Click (that
+is, you click the mouse button while holding the Command/Apple/Propeller key).
+
+For the following platforms, custom backends were supported at one point
+but currently are not being maintained (usually due to lack of a qualified
+maintainer). In some cases (e.g. Linux), the standard SDL support works
+instead.
+
+\begin{tabular}{ll}
+MorphOS\\
+GP32 \\
+Linux \\
+\end{tabular}
+
+We have reports about unofficial ports to the following platforms. Please
+note that this are not made by us, so we neither endorse nor support them.
+Use at your own risk!
+
+\begin{tabular}{ll}
+Nintendo DS\\
+Xbox \\
+\end{tabular}
