LInks 386 is a newer product with SVGA graphics (which I don't THINK M$ Golf has) If you have the horses I highly recommend Links386 It has several nice features that Links doesn't have but which M$ Golf may (or may not) 1) You can save shots to see later 2) You can record entire games and replay them later thus enabling you to play against friends by mailing copies of games to each other. You can also play against yourself. 3) You can set up several windows on the screen. Mine is set up to see the regular front "3-d" view on the left side and the right side has two panes, one with the reverse view from the green and the other with the overhead view of thee course. 4) Sound board support -- dick sidbury SUN : sid...@cs.uofs.edu computing sciences dept.
