Did a mouse scroll patch ever get made for X-COM UFO Defense or are there
later versions that do not have the scroll speed problem.
 I did just download the UFO Extraterrestrials Trailer, the graphics I seen on
the web site http://www.ufo-extraterrestrials.com are look real good!
 The only other versioon of X-COM I ever did try was Terror From The Deep.

The (much) later "Classic" windows versions were slightly rewritten so they 
didn't have that problem.  But no, there wasn't a patch for the mouse scroll 
prob.  Best thing you can do is use slowdown progs like moslo and DOSBOX, as 
the code just isn't used to the speeds of today's CPUs.  Can anyone remember 
when a 486 was considered the latest high-tech?  ;D
