You'll need a few other things like 'make', 'python', and 'perl'. My
suggestion is to install cygwin with all of the development tree chosen
as well as python and perl.

Yes. Although OpenRM has specific support for Chromium, i.e. it's
"Chromium aware", so it will probably provide you with better performance.

This gets a little tricky. In a sort-last configuration, yes. In this
configuration, Chromium will only handle the pixels after they have been
rendered. I'm going to guess that things will not work as expected in
sort-last rendering, i.e. the geometry is handled by Chromium.
I should mention that there is a great deal of work to get Chromium to
work with really odd tiled display configurations. It might be better
to adapt the tilesort SPU to handle the complex transformations. Others
might be able to provide more information on this.
