Ultima 7 in Windows?
trotski writes "In its day, Ultima 7 was one of the most complex and detailed RPG's ever made. Lets put it this way, in 1992 it required 20 mb of hard drive space and a 386 processor; cutting edge equipment that at the time retailed at well over $2000. Unfortunatly, until now getting Utlima 7 to run properly under win9X or worse, win2K or XP was heart-breaking. Fortunatly, someone has designed a utility that allows you to run this program under all versions of Windows as well as Linux! Very exciting for people out there who want to play this classic." Actually, Linux support seems to be only hypothetical at this point; along with the link to download the code is a note that says "Anyone who wishes to study the source code, or to port it to Linux or any other OS, is welcome to download this file."
Must study hard, so I can Yatta!
I have just partitioned by 60 gb hard disk in to 60 little pieces so I can install hurd on my pc! With a ps/2 keyboard and mice, a crappy 1990 vga 640x480 monitor, and a AMD Athlon 2800+ to run it all. So does it run on hurd? Or ill have to reboot in to /dev/hda59 to run it on debian woody
