I was reading through some old threads, looking for information on how to play windows 95 games on XP - and Connectix Virtual PC was mentioned, but since then Microsoft have bought the company.

Just thought I'd toss this link out here, these are older games(some not so old) that have become freeware, no W4r3Z whatsoever, strictly legit. This site does not allow illegal BS. The site starts you off with points, and you can earn more by submitting reviews and screenshots.
