James Dobson accuses Barack Obama of having actually read the Bible.

( I'm normally arachnophobic and this pic doesn't bother me in the slightest. It's COOL. But it's a spider. )

The Queensland government has endorsed voluntary chemical castration for sex offenders among other measures to strengthen its laws.

Corrective Services Minister Judy Spence said the treatment would be carried out only when an offender agreed, and the treating psychiatrist recommended it.

=========================================

Of course, it's voluntary - and if you do not volunteer, they do not release you from jail, despite having completed your full sentence.

Does nobody in Corrective Services see a *problem* with this?

I have a program. I will call this program "X-Com: UFO Defense" because that is what it is.[1]

It runs *just fine* on PC, but only in it's preferred fullscreen mode. This wouldn't be so bad, but in multimonitor mode it takes over screen #1 and also screws up screen #2.

I want it to either:
A) run fullscreen but without touching screen #2
or
B) run in a window.

It's too new for DosBox. And no, it doesn't expect or respect the fullscreen/windowed shortcuts.

Any suggestions?

[1]: Actually, it's "UFO: Enemy Unknown", but nobody knows it by that name any more. Same game.

EDIT: A solution!

The DOS version of X-Com 1 plus DosBox equals properly handled windowed X-Com 1.

Thanks,
