So Ive always been a fan of Sid Meier, moreover, I like Gettysburg & Antietam. Unfortunately they didnt work on windows 2000 or XP, so I had to wait till I got home to my parents crappy computer w/ win 98 to play it.

Guess what!

Firaxis/EA has released (well they did it in June) a windows 2k/xp compatibility patch. Its off the firaxis site!

Frollick with me my brethren!
