Spikey:
The Compilation CD? It's basically just the latest LSL Compilation that came out (bought it on Amazon, IIRC.) Came with DOSBox packaged with the games, but no real attempt to set DOSBox up for each game, or even setting each game up to take advantage of DOSBox's features. I just installed, copied the games to my DOSBox C folder, then uninstalled, so I could set up each game the way I wanted with a current version of DOSBox. I also ran the Setup files for each game (though I had to do some digging to find some - some of the games had them stripped out for some reason.) If you really want a pic of that CD, you can look at it:

(Modem users beware: This site features a lot of pictures and will take quite some time to load.)

As one can see in the pictures the major part the EGA screens are just rendered down version from the VGA versions but in some cases, especially in Space Quest 4, there are some other differences
