Yeah...I had the occur when I was trying to find a game called Master of Magic...

It was kick ass.

I hope you find your X-Com...I think I had a copy awhile back, but, like you, I haven't figured out what I did with it.

I did this with a really really really old game called sword of the samurai. It was a lot of fun but my new computer can't run it, it's dos based. I'm sure I can find a way around it, i'll probably try tonight now that you reminded me.

I still own that shit, and I still enjoy dusting it off once in a while.

I had my BBS up for a few years... until I found AOL and got sucked into the chat rooms.

Then people trying to dial-in to the BBS always got a busy signal.

Forums, Games, and Downloads (rofl haxor text files and maybe a few pictures)
