That's an *excellent* question !

I'd imagine it'd work OK with "BootCamp" or "Parallels".

It'll be interesting to see what the answer is ....

Later!

  "HellCats Over The Pacific" Question         


Author: CaryMG
Date: Jan 24, 2007 08:41

I'd like to play Eric Parker's flatshaded polygonal masterpiece on my
Apple "Macintosh SE/30" computer.

But the game's color & although my machine has color ROMs I've been
burned before
as far as trying to play color games on it before -- like "Tristan" --
the pinball simulator, for example.

I get an errormessage that says "MUST USE COLOR COMPUTER" or something
like that. lol

Does anyone have any firsthand experience playing "HellCats Over The
Pacific"
on an Apple "Macintosh SE/30" in black & white ?

Thanks In Advance!

Generally both, although not always simultaneously :-)

Well, it's nice to have a choice of crap I suppose :-)
I can report that I've installed MS CFS 3 onto my work provided Compaq
laptop and it's still shite.

Any advice on decent PC flight sims that I can try out? They need to be
XP compatible since BootCamp won't run anything less. I think.
