Wow, cool
Was this demo CD part of that Westwood 10 years anniversary edition box you've got? Oh, and by the way, remember some time ago I kept asking about the "anniversary edition" of C&C that had Dune II as a bonus? Wasn't it perchance included as well?

They're already there
And you will be laughing, but they're actually among those things that
motivated me to start this thread in the first place

Interesting... Perhaps they were using an the same source code as the basis for the Win95 version, but some last-minute changes that were introduced during the compilation of DOS v1.22 were not included in the "master" source code?
