I am not much of a Mac gamer so need some help here. I own WarCraft II and was wondering how I could play against my brother over the phone lines using a modem. He has an older PC and I have a PM 800. Being that WarCraft II is a hybrid CD can I download the game onto his PC then take it home for use on my Mac? Avoiding having to purchase another WarCraft CD for each of us to run? I know I ran the game from the CD when I played it on my Mac.

Advice appreciated,
rhino

You can do that, yes - you can install it onto the hard drive of both computers, and for multiplayer only one of you needs the CD inserted.
