Would Wine work for this game? The old DOS stuff has more than just one
emulator and I also wonder if Vista breaks some of the Windows equivalents.
I have some old games lying around. My Nintendo and Megadrive games even
work with decent emulators for Linux. I think it's natural for Windows users
to assume that Linux users aren't gaming... with full access to the source
code which gets them running, leading to confidence with eyes on the
long-term future...
