Apparently they are supposed to have Nascar using one of the accelerated graphics boards so you won't need a P6. You might ask about that. -- [link lost in import: /~fmah]

With all this talk about what's needed to play NASCAR and Indycar 2.0 in SVGA with all details on, Rick at Papyrus answered this question for me. I asked if NASCAR and Indycar 2.0 for Win95 were going to be 32-bit software so that the P6 would be a big help in an almost impossible attempt to get a full field of 38 cars with all details turned on. He said... So is anyone crazy enough to sell one of their children and buy a P6 system motherboard and CPU just for a couple of games?? I know I am! (I don't think I'll have to sell my kid though.:^) Alex
