Add OS field to IBM-PC

Post by Nexy »

Can we add an OS field with checkboxes for IBM-PC and Mac.

If they are checkboxes we can select multiple OS supported.

DOS
Win3.x
Win95
Win98
WinME
WinNT
Win2K
WinXP
Win2K3
WinVista
Win7

for Mac, OSX version.

This in no way suggests splitting up the sets.
Plextor PX-760A 1.07 (+30) : Plextor PX-716SA 1.11 (+30) : Plextor PX-W5224A 1.04 (+30) : Plextor PX-W4824 1.07 (+30) : Plextor PX-W4012TA 1.07 (+98) : Plextor PX-W1610TA (+99) : Plextor PX-W1210TA 1.10 (+99) : Lite-On LTR-48246S (+6) : Lite-On LTR-52246S (+6) : Lite-On LH-20A1H LL0DN (+6) : BenQ DW1655 BCIB (+618) : ASUS DRW-2014L1 1.02 (+6) : Yamaha CRW-F1 (+733) : Optiarc SA-7290H5 1H44 (+48) : ASUS BW-16D1HT 3.02 (+6)

And me definitely agree.  The more info we get on DB can't hurt.  Could also help identify some different releases.  Where one dump may be DOS only, and another release may be Windows, or both.

I still suggest to _split_ the sets either by OS or by year range.

I rather don't like the splitting idea because many stuff can overlap OS versions. Better to just have a field which says which OS's the games were intended to run, it's always on the CD cases/Boxes.
