Hello everybody!

I recently repurchased Harpoon 97 and have been working to setup an environment in which to play it in. This was, I believe, the second game I purchased the my first computer I purchased around 1997. The first being 688(I) Hunter Killer. I didn’t play Harpoon a lot mostly because I kept having a difficult time making any headway. I’m hoping now I’ll have more patience and make a better show of it.

Currently, I’ve got an apple computer running Windows XP in VMWare and a copy of Harpoon 97 and Harpoon 2 through DOSBox, although once I receive the disks in the mail, I’ll try skipping the box and use an old copy of Win98SE through VMWare. I’m curious what hardware setups other people use. I would like to play something like 688(I) again. I’d be interested in Wolfpack is it is playable on my computer.
