Also, Strategic Conquest is a pretty good network game, if you have about a year and a half. ----Ken ******************************************************************************** * "It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood!" ---FR * Television * * "Get away from me with that spatula, Fred!" ---Mrs. FR * worth watching * ********************************************************************************

On the note of network games, has anyone tried Spaceward Ho! over a network? It wants access to the server, which I don't have. Is there anyway to play it just over Appletalk, like with NetTrek, Falcon and StratCon? | John Taggart Gorman Jr. | "I'm a no rust build up man myself." | | -Christian Slater | jtgorman@caslon.cs.arizona.edu | in 'Heathers'

If SingleShare is like Tops, it should work fine: Tops allows computers on a network to see files on other computers, but without a server. System 7.0, as was mentioned before, will have this capability built in. -- Peter Commons commons@cs.stanford.edu Computer Science Department, Stanford University
