actually....there are ;) heheheheh Tribes once again does do IP only....as
does Dungeon Keeper II, Xwing Alliance and a slew of others (Quake3 as well
;) Either is good....but only in a network :)
As for IPX being bound to the dialup- there is no problem if its not a
winmodem. You'll save no time or latency un-bound....and some programs
(Kali among them) use the IPX across a dialup ON the net.
