I've played a 386 40mhz and a 486 33mhz with a null modem cable.  I did
have lock-ups with the original version A but we had no trouble with version
C.  I am going to try version D this weekend hopefully ( right Will? ).
Toting around a full machine to friends houses is cumbersome but playing
this game with two players is a heck of a lot of fun.  I found modem play
impossibly slow, so for me null-modem connection is the only way to go.
The only flight sim I'll play over a modem is F-29.
