Well, Tony, she's half right. Once you get the necessary software installed
in the right sequence, and get the games working, let her give them a try.
They're fun. If she can see what she's doing with a computer, so much the
better. I wish sighted people played these games to experience games as we
do, and keep an open mind when playing them. I had a neighbor about 3 years
ago that would come over to my house once in a while and play Tank Commander
from
www.gmagames.com
and he, at that time, planned to buy it for his home PC. I don't know if he
ever did, and I have lost touch with him since moving to Oklahoma.

Hey Tony,
Actually, the .NET Framework is only required for newer games such as Rail
Racer, Mysteries of the Ancients, 3D Velocity, and some other games built
using the Microsoft .NET platform. You will find many older games by GMA,
Jim Kitchen, BSC, and others are written in Visual Basic 6 and can be
installed and run on XP without any additional components to be installed.
Hope this helps.
