[ale] Snow day plus bazillion year old software

[John]

With the weather here today, seems like a good time for a 100% gaming 
day!  Certainly my ISP is having an outage. ;)

Time to get those old DOS games out: Starflight, Sentinel Worlds, C&C, 
Real-War, F-15 Eagle, Space Shuttle, and some old Star Wars thing.  
Gotta try Flight Sim 2002, if there's time.

I read that C&C runs under WINE 
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=7440 .  
Having gotten Quicken 2011 working recently, I'm feeling pretty bold.

Or I could get a head start on taxes ... er ... probably not.
