Don't worry about the apparant emptiness of this
page—I'll get to work on it soon.

DOS Games
- The World's Most Low-Key Website
– And it will probably stay that way, since my dad's site has
never had "snazzy graphics" (like my pages do), nor does he
update it more than once a decade. There are two 100+ year old
books transcribed here (one historical, one technical), as well as a
paper he wrote on serial communication, a Guide to Spam-Like Products,
and links back to here and to Arachnoid's site.
- Uncle Sam on the Fourth of
July – For the past 8 years or so, my dad has been Old Poway
Park's Uncle Sam at the annual Old-Fashioned Fourth of July festival.
And for the last 5 of those years, I have been the primary
photographer, and in charge of our elaborate photo-printing setup.
This page has sample photos from the last 2 years.
- Guide to Spam-Like Products
– Just like it sounds. My dad's other page, updated far
more often, which has scans of every variety of the 12-oz. rectangular
cans of luncheon meat (even foreign ones) that my dad has ever come
across—over 100 unique cans!
- Arachnoid's Web Page
– My older brother's webpage. Obviously, his pages are a
little dated. (Okay, a lot!) There are some nice pages he
wrote on buses here, although if the rest is any indication then
they're probably very dated too…
General
- RGB Classic Games
– My favorite DOS games site; formerly called Classic DOS Games.
Has a collection of over 400 of the best DOS, Win16, and Win32
games ever (searchable by name, author, publisher, license, year,
etc.), with over twice that many different versions, screenshots, a
forum, utilities, and much more. The majority of the games can
even be played in your browser with the help of a Java applet.
Link valid as of 2014-Aug-26.
- DOSGames.com – Another
wonderful site devoted to DOS games, with over 600 as of August 2011.
Link valid as of 2014-Aug-26.
Descent
- Descent 3 Sector – A
Descent 3-oriented site run by Hunter, a veteran D3 pilot and level
creator. Has D3 playable demos, mods, patches, tools, and an
enormous catalog of D3 missions comparable to Planet Descent's.
(Perhaps he rescued them?) Link valid as of 2014-Aug-26.
- Descent BB DBB is
one of the largest and most active Descent forums on the Net.
Link valid as of 2014-Aug-26.
- DXX-Rebirth –
DXXR is an excellent source port of D1 and D2 for multiple platforms.
You can read more about it there or on the Game Info sections of
the Descent section on this site. Link valid as of 2014-Aug-26.
- PlanetDescent – Formerly the absolute best
Descent site on the 'Net, with shareware demos, patches, and
thousands of levels, as well as general information for all three of
the Descent games, D3 level editing guides, and a forum that was
invaluable. (For example, I learned not to use NVIDIA display
drivers any higher than version 163.75 with Descent3,
to avoid certain OpenGL issues.) I was saddened when I read on
the DXX-Rebirth site that PD had met its end.
Jazz Jackrabbit
- Jazz 2 Online
– The best Jazz Jackrabbit 2 site around that I know of.
Need I say more? Link valid as of 2014-Aug-26.
