The mac I got a while ago, well I want to put into use. What are good games I can get for a G3 266Mhz mac with 32mb ram can run? I already found Quake I at my friends house (Just sittin there for the takin) any way any one know other games? I am thinking of searching for Wolfefenstein for Mac but I think thats a bit hard to find. I think Starcraft should work fine on this mac along with warcraft. Gotta borrow those too.

I have DOSBOX running in OS X, but I have a nasty old 466 MHz g4, so the sound skips horribly. Nonetheless, I didn't find it too hard to get it running. You just mount a directory using unix-style paths. Say you wanted to mount your hard drive, I think it would just be mount C /

it's easier to mount the folder your games are in though. mount C /users/you/games/abandoned/ or whatever. If you want more help, PM me and I'll see what I can do.
