Cool.

I'll have to setup the laptop so I can play Maniac Mansion and Day of the Tentacle at the lake.

I actually have System Shock 2 still and a Win XP enabled version of Sam and Max.

I always draw a blank when trying to remember the name of "Maniac Mansion", which I owned. I remember the name of the sequal ("Day of the Tentacle"), which I didn't own.

"Maniac Mansion" came out around the time of the first Sound Blaster card. I remember how impressed I was that even without sound card support, Lucas' software people were able to develop better audio through the PC speaker than other companies were doing with a sound card.

I was playing Colonization at some point last year. That game is still fun to me.
