  Thanks for the tip, I'll create a link now for that, I forgot about
them.... It's on my things to do to replay the classics of Red Alert and
Command and Conquer, I'm playing Tiberian Sun: Firestorm right now, just
finished the mission for GDI when Cabal betrays GDI, Haven't played the nod
missions yet.... It really bugged me that I couldn't figure out how to
install covert ops for months....

Oh, and I just bought the new collection with Renegade and Red Alert 2, so I
have that to play also...
