The text itself aligns well, but to click the texts the mouse has to be vertically about half of the text above and lightly to the left. Here's a rough image of the click area for me.

Anyways, if you'd set up the mouse properly it should work for all computers. Especially since it's windowed. You could also try DirectInput for the mouse, if you haven't already.

The GUI looks cool. Like oldschool Fall Out.

this is pretty nice, and coming along well (tho spelling errors here and there, which got me confused if Zordinian or Zardinian or Zordinain (some of the spelling errors xD))
some others would be "siezing", "eraticate", "cedits" and "shot ugrades" xD
