Wow, keeping Windows XP was an issue while Vista was the "upgrade." I didn't think I'd see it ever again.
I used to be a staunch AMD guy back when the XP 3500+ days, and as a result so were my friends. Then Core 2 came along and rained on that parade, so I'm back with Intel and am now running an i7. But some of my friends are still staunch AMD guys (I think I did too good of a job of convincing them). I think something like this is pretty much the primary reason people are sticking with XP even if they have the system resources for 7 or 8. I don't even dual boot anymore because every program I run either runs fine on 7 or has been upgraded to something that does.
My computer has big reels of tape "whirring" around with "tubes" inside. The only thing is the black and white monitor. I'd love to see this game in color, I bet it's awesome......

Does your antique mainframe have the processing power to actually play this game? That's amazing! I didn't know they made a version that came on hole-punch cards for those old machines.
Personally I bought the 5.25" floppy version for my 80286 with green monochrome monitor. It only plays at 1 frame-per-minute but I find I prefer that to a faster frame rate, really helps when lining up those sniper shots, if you know what I mean. I'm thinkin' about getting a 3DFX card to upgrade my system with too. Might get all the way up to 10 frames per minute that way.
