  A 3D version of Tic-Tac-Toe made up of a 4x4x4 grid.
  Two player compete to make a row, column, or diagonal of
  4 spheres or boxes.

  This game is the basis of the network application
  in NetFourByFour/

  Changes from Sun version:
    - removed game logic; replaced with second player
        * this has made the Board class *much* simpler
    - removed most of GUI: no skill levels, no instructions,
      no new game option
    - used Swing rather than AWT 
    - used Java3D utilities: Box, Cylinder
    - removed ID class; now I store an Integer objet in the
      user data field of each shape
    - modified the PickDragBehavior logic so that dragging 
      doesn't 'jump' when first used
