I'd get one of those. A dosBox, for all my old games Everyone would walk in and be shocked by its sleek smoothness, and amazing menu system... til they noticed you could only put 5.25's into it!

The one I built had both a 5.25 and a 3.5" drive in it... of course the 5.25 is currently disconnected since I sacrificed its floppy cable and CD-ROM drive to repair one of my servers.  Yarr! but it does play a mean Mortal Kombat game.    Now I just have to figure out where I put my copies of MK1 and MK3... (it only has mk2 right now)... and of course my cheat sheets.

For any big-endian "real" systems...

Is this in the CVS trees already.  I'd like to use this on OS X or try to port it to my IRIX machines.  It's odd that the music loader works ok but the wav loader doesn't.

that would requrie me to have thoes spare parts laying around, one and two the knowlage to put them together into something useful, wich i dont. im just a simple welder with limited computer knowlage, though i did install my voodoo5 and added some more ram to my super destructive and yet timid 600mhrz compaq crap machine that crashes more then a boeing 747. but thanks anyway. its a good thing they included a cd recovery program, otherwise id be up a creek without a mouse... ~DEFIANT

Yeah I tend to not think of those things.  I have about a metric ton of computer parts around, but I work in the field.  I'm on call 24/7 for a datacenter providing daycare for big HP 9000 equipment.  Most of my 20 or so computers at home are not Intel based (in fact I don't consider x86 machines "real" computers --   Most of my machines would crush a PC if they fell on them)  One of these days if I have spare time my friends and I will fix the sound loader code to be endian-safe so we can run it on the Mac and hear sounds as opposed to just hearing the music.  The 486 I built I swiped from my ex-employer's trash pile... swipe isn't quite true because I asked #1, and #2 I was the director of IT.

This reminds me - what exactly is a Primat? #001, Top Banana-Quan?

In any case, given the number of posts it looks like you're determined that the way I'll become enlightened is entirely talking with you...

The only primat I know of is Beldar Conehead's wife.

you can get a copy of sc2 pc version on *****. there are only two sources to download from but thats where i got mine. i once owned the single cd that had both sc1 and sc2 with a map in perfect condition, but sold for a rip off of $20. now i kick my self every time i think about it.. ouch!

Why not just do what I did.  Set up an old 486/66 made from junk parts I had lying around and build a classic gaming box... Star Control series, Mortal Kombat 1-3, Doom (original and perhaps 2), Duke Nukem 1,2, and 3D, Nesticle (with ROMS), etc.  I call it the DOStendo as opposed to a Wintendo which is sitting across from it and plays the modern stuff.
