[Zardoz]

Our next big event is on April 12th-13th!.

We're also working on an oldschool gaming event on the weekend of 8th-9th March. QuakeWorld duel etc...

Wrap-up coming soon! Huge thanks to everyone who came and made it something awesome.

Out of interest what would you say is the minimum spec'ed pc to use? I have everything from 486-p1-p2-p3-p4 to modern day . Would be cool to bust out the 486 for same lannage . Suppose it really depends on the list of games.

I think the balancer would be being able to run Windows 98 & DOS. That way we're balanced across the range.

Games are still TBC as far as I know, but Doom and Duke Nukem have certainly been floated. WCIII is possibly one of the NEWEST games that would count as 'old-school'... And it could work out nicely too.

486's would be DOS-only admittedly, but Pentiums, Cyrix, VIAs and K6-IIs would have no problems with Windows 98 assuming that there is enough RAM.

Interested in putting some specs together for me? I may call on you and your PC power :-)

I'm still trying to get my P4 back (not counting my chances), but P4/Athlon XP were the last ones to run Windows 98 & DOS driver-support wise as far as I know, so I guess that's our benchmark. :-P
