| An emulation will almost never be as good as the original system. You will have to check it out. Borrow a Windows CD from one of your friends and test it. Getting a new PC just for some freeware game seems a bit extreme IMO though. Abolishing the glory of the Mac just for some game...?

| it'll be slow and laggy. but as to *how* slow, i don't know. it's possible that it'll be very playable. i currently can't get past a blue screen of death on my win98 set up... can anyone help? it's at the point of the Date & Time set up, as soon as i hit 'close' to get to the next stage, BSOD, every time.

| in Q, select your 'computer' and get the settings up for it. go into Hardware, and at the bottom will be a pull down menu. select boot from cd first.

| blue gekko: If Gunbound needs any kind of 3d graphics card, NO emulation program on the Mac will even run it. In my experience, the emulators are, at best, barely useable for simple software. I have the commercial Virtual PC on my Power Mac G5, a fast Mac. It's slowwwwww and laggy. It emulates an ancient 2d card and it doesn't play games well at all, even DOS games. I just bought it because I love emulators (see my signature). Doug
