I used to have SO many good games for the IIe - the retro goodness now is awesome.

I remember installing the ][ Emulator for my LC which read from the 5.25" floppies and played them like a little trooper. All still works like a charm too which is impressive.

I used to have a great word processor for the IIe too, but I don't remember its name. VERY awesome.

I was using all this (and networking computers) when I was like six. Show me an average six year old networking *PCs* in the age pre-Windows 95. :P.

I don't know about Warcraft I, but wasn't Warcraft II re-released as Battle.net edition not sooo long ago....? It was WarII with the Expansion plus the ability to play over the net

EDIT: Like this

WarII Battle.net Product page

EDIT the 2nd: plus, eBay is your friend

Look's like somebody revived my old post from December.

I bought a PowerMac 7300/200 on ebay, so now I can finally play Tie Fighter and SimCity 2000 again. Those were the good old days of mac gaming.

Gollum84 you are in luck! I just picked up a PB 1400cs from a school and guess what was on the HD? Oregon Trail and Odell Down Under! Want them?

There is nothing like oldschool mac gaming. Four games stand out for me:

1. Swamp Gas
2. The Secret Island of Dr. Quandary
3. SimCity 2000
4. Hypercard Trainset
