Some games which I have played (of the arcade variety) don't pay attention to your system speed, and so they are impossible on some of the faster machines. I have heard that there is a way to make your computer slow down. Does anyone know of some sort of command which does this?

Actually, PC Magazine published a utility to slowdown your computer about three years ago(maybe a little more). If you browse their bulletin board, you can probably find it under SLOWDOWN or some such name. Rick -- Rick Ward | E.I.
