Greetings,

        Do you ever get tired of playing against the computer?  Have you ran
out of scenarios and are ready for new challenges?  Maybe just want the
comfort of human cooperative support in a game against the computer?

        Well, there are certain games in my game library that work across a
two-machine Ethernet network (IPX under Windows 95/98).  One machine is a
Cyrix 333
w/ATI Rage and the other is an Intel 75 w/Diamond Stealth 2000.  Both have
mice.  Only have a single joystick and other input devices.  If you are
interested in playing, here is what I have....

        Command & Conquer (DOS)
        Command & Conquer: Red Alert
        F-22 Lightning II
        Mechwarrior 2
        Stars! (Shareware)
        Warcraft (DOS)

        Other games that I have, I do not have enough CD-ROM's to play,
since I only have a single copy and it requires to have a CD in each drive
of both computers.  They are as follows:

        Front Page Sports: Football Pro '98
        iM1A2 Abrams
        Masters of Orion II
        NASCAR 2
        Risk (Hasbro version)

        If you are interested in the first group, let's make an arrangement
for a session of play.  If you are in the last group, if you have one of
these CD's already, we can still make arrangements to play, but otherwise
will have to wait until you or I buy the extra CD(s).

        Also, if you have networkable games for sale or even just know of
any, please drop me a line.  I am interested in pursuing adding more
multiplayer games as time goes on.  Thank you.
