if you want to run a game that normaly runs just in dos, under windows,
then again, under winsock. then you'll need a lot of memory/computer power.
(me on my crap 386/25 4 meger, could not do this!)
anyway, there are some small games that ou can play over winsock,
chess is one of them, as to where to find them, dunno.
the thing metioned down below me, (i guess) probily lets you run
a doom net game over a PPP connection, in dos, (as in not under winsock
in any way)
i could be wrong, and i should check it out before i say anything more.
everything i've seen so far has just let you use doom over PPP
in DOS.
