Title: Windows 2000 Preview available for download

hiya!

go to http://www.geocities.com/be_alternative/downloads.html (http://www.geocities.com/be_alternative/downloads.html) and download the "Windows 2000 Preview", it's very amusing. It's a win32 exe file, but i'm sure a lot of non windows systems will run it using wine or something (have not actually tried) This is the first thing i'd say should be run in windows though, you'll know what i mean when you see it.

Also i urge you to download the Kung Fu one as well. I mean it, even if you don't like kung fu...

Yep, they work in Wine, even remotely through an ssh session.  I like the kitty launcher personally.

yup, i like it too, but i posted that one before, if it's the one i'm thinking of, and got told that it needed winex to run properly (since i could not run it in wine) still, maybe it's a different thing and i'm talking out of my arse!

I don't know I just typed "wine Kitty*.exe" on my RedHat 7.3 desktop from my Laptop and it popped up on my Laptop screen and I could play it with no problem.... Stock wine.

I was so disappointed when Wine wouldn't run Heretic 3... until I realized how old it was.  It's such a cool program, runs pretty much anything now that I've updated it.  Wheeee!   :D
