The information in this article applies to:

 == MSN Gaming Zone == 

= SUMMARY =

To play on the MSN Gaming Zone, you must use a Microsoft Windows 95/98-based or Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 or later-based computer.

You cannot use a computer running Microsoft Windows 3.x, any variety of UNIX (including Linux), or an Apple Macintosh computer to play on the Zone.

= MORE INFORMATION =

The decision to support only the Windows 95/98 and Windows NT platforms was made for the following reason:

The Zone uses a combination of ActiveX, Java, and VBScript technologies to provide the most user-friendly interface for gaming on the Internet. Because these technologies are not fully supported by the other platforms, the Zone cannot function properly on these platforms.
