Although I have never been a compter fan,most of their games,I got C&C 64 for $5 over the summer,well worth it.
The stick isn't even that bad,but I can imagine how sweet it would be on the computer.
I am assuming that you don't need a graphics cards for them,or not a good one...

one of the levels in red alert 1, can't remeber which number, allied campaign bitchness2 you get a Tanya and a balistic canon and somehow your supposed to be able to take on 5 V2's only time I ever HAD to cheat in any of those games
favorite unit ever? Yuri Prime- this guy could take out every unit in a base from the inside out and didn't even have to get close. Use the clone vats and you get two (sweetness.)

really? that sucks a nut, but really Red Alert 1 was my least favorite of the series, and since I play RA2 and Generals almost exclusivly now, it's not too big a deal for me

red alert 2 is amazing. i think thats one of the most fun if not the most fun rts out there. i never get enough of that game. go chrono commandos
generals is really revelutionary for westood. its a sleak game with some awesome fesatures. the only prob i have with it was that when i got it before the summer i had windows 2000 and i had to get an upgrde for my video card to run the game cause its pretty big. well since then i had to upgrade to xp which erased the upgrade to the video card and basically i am too lazy to get it again. maybe i will muster up the resolve to do it once again. that way i can reign supreme with my angry mobs full of fire bombs and AK-47's

actually, I thought generals was a little overhyped, the graphics system was already used in "Emporer" and it didn't have as many units as I would have prefered.
and yes, angry mobs with AK's are the... there are no words for how great they are. Just have to watch out for flame tanks and flashbangs.

but now i can't even try it anymore cause it won't run on windows XP. yeah, it will, right click on the shortcut and click Properties... then click the Advanced tab (or whatever the last tab is called) and look for the Run In Previous Version Mode or something. Check the box and have it run in Windows 98 mode, that should do it.

I tried that when max payne and splinter cell wouldn't work no help at all
chances are you just need to upgrade your video card drivers, even if it doesn't work for that game, your computer will run more smoothly with better drivers
