- Gee since we're all throwing our 2 cents in, I will also. I have a
- Thunderboard and Dune II plays superbly. I get all of the little voices
- during the scenarios, and I got the intro voices and have experienced no
- lockups (so far - 386/40 w/4 MB, HIMEM & EMM386).
-
- BTW, this game makes the best use of audio of any game I've seen. It
- becomes such an integral part of the game play
