Reader Cam had a question regarding Baseball for Windows.

How do I get my XP version ported over to Vista?

I’m not a BBW user so I really couldn’t answer with much authority.  My thought was that it shouldn’t matter unless BBW wasn’t Vista-compliant.

Does anyone else have a good answer for Cam?

He says in part:

 

Now I have a new job in another town and miss that time we spent together as well as miss playing APBA baseball all together.  It is not feasible for me to join any leagues with my schedule, but I still wish there was a way to play online.  It seems to me that the computer version of this game would lend itself over to playing online very easily.  I literally have had dreams about logging onto an APBA baseball site similar to that of an online poker site and finding a game.  I have looked all over the net, but have had no luck at all.  Am I not looking in the right places or is there really no where play online?
 
I honestly haven’t followed the computer aspect of APBA recently.  I know a while back there was talk of an online version of the game but it sort of fell apart.
Did the project ever get picked up again?

His update has a bit of bittersweet touch.  The league’s name is derived from a manager who was killed serving his country in Iraq.  Every league has its issues but something like this puts everything into perspective.

“The Matt Kading Memorial APBA League began as the Roberto Clemente league in 2000. We are an NL-only league. It was renamed after league member Matt Kading after he was killed in Iraq, serving our country. We’ve had several managers throuhout the years, but commissioner Kirt Bennett and a hard-core group of GMs keep this league a lot of fun. We use the DOS version of Baseball for Windows. Check out our league website, you can see all the past league champions, records, etc. Thanks!”

 

thanks Craig!
