(svn r3555) -Codechange: [Big Endian] removed defining OTTD_ALIGNMENT by default on Big Endian CPUs
this increased speed when reading unaligned data (like strings)
test showed this to increase speed by 5,6% when drawing the mini map on PPC OSX

the tradeoff is that now it will crash if a Big Endian computer don't support unaligned reading
but it should easily fixable in stdafx.h if it turns out to be a problem

TTD to OpenTTD
Transition Guide
This guide gives you pointers in making the transition from TTD to OpenTTD.  Once OpenTTD matures more, this guide will grow.  For now, here are the major differences that I’ve seen.
* Being able to resize the window so that "full-screen" can also show so much more of the land
* Command Line switches to make things easier
* Generate Random Land in the scenario editor also builds small towns, forests, and industries
* A configuration screen that lets you turn on / off TTD Patch features
Some day, OpenTTD will contain the features of TTD Patch.
