Hey, I am posting this information just in case you were not aware: EA Games have released the original Red Alert game for download from their site, co-inciding with the launch of Red Alert 3. This version will run on Windows 2000/XP. Will have to test networking to be sure.
Having said that, is anyone interested in a skirmish at the next lan, if it works?

Cheers
**Update:
The version that can be downloaded does not seem to have updated IP based network support.

Cheers
