[Eichhörnchen]

Here's a dummy's question for you: I've only ever had Windows but the other day I picked up an old Mac game for my retro collection. I looked online to find out whether I'd be able to play it on XP and found many giving the answer 'Yes'. One reply said "Of course you can play your Mac games on Windows", the respondent going on to point out that it was a question of your computer's performance, not the platform.

So I popped the DVD into the tray on two different desktops, both running XP. The first just blanked it... showed absolutely nothing in the drive... wouldn't open. The second at least had the kindness to tell me that "Windows cannot read from this disc... it may be corrupted etc. etc."

So... can I play this on XP?
