There was a problem with the display of rotated text on Macs 
using earlier versions of Mathematica. But, this is no longer 
the case with the current version (5.2). I cannot specifically 
recall if this problem had been corrected by version 5.1 or not. 
And since I've not used Linux, I don't whether the problem 
exists there.
