There will never be a version of any Escape Velocity game for any non-Macintosh platform. The closest you can come is to run it under emulation. I suggest you read WarBeast's (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/game_master107/howtoemulateamac.html")tutorial(/url) on how to run Escape Velocity and EV Override under emulation.

100%, the normal speed. Although, I'll double that with the caps lock at times when I'm impatient to get somewhere or need to refuel.

It all depends on the machine you're running and what you're doing in the game at that point, doesn't it? I mean, if you're in a complex battle on a slow machine, things get pretty clunky, but if you're in open space on a dual-processor 850MHz G4, well, things can move pretty darn fast. Too fast for me to steer well, anyway. (My 2˘).
