Yes, I know, though I temporarily forgot about it till you reminded me, but
its not something I was that interested in viewing anyway. I don't have MS
word. Don't you need MS Office for that? I have Wordpad or Notepad and they
are OK.

May I recommend Shivers? And if you like that, try to find Shivers
2. Great atmosphere and lots of puzzles. If I could play games over
again for the first time it would be those two, Black Mirror, all the
Tex Murphy games (which may be a problem on a newer machine, I seem to
recall some tweaking involved), Cameron Files: Secret at Loch Ness,
The Riddle of Master Lu (which I think is DOS). The Secrets of
DaVinci, The Neverhood, The Mystery of the Mummy, Syberia, and (altho
I'm fairly alone in this one) the Watchmaker.
