This brief 'sneak preview' of Magic: The Gathering gives you a taste of 
the game's "look and feel." This preview is interactive, but many options 
are unfinished, and the card game duels are non-interactive demos.

The final game will have a different and much larger world, as well as duels 
against computer or human opponents. Magic: The Gathering includes virtually 
all the cards from the original Magic: The Gathering set, as well as the 
Arabian Nights, Antiquities, Legends, and Dark expansion sets.

Because Magic: The Gathering is a work in progress, this preview has various 
limitations. Don't be surprised by occasional unexpected behaviors. This is 
NOT the final game, just a small glimpse at the work in progress. 

This preview installs all program files to your hard disk. The final CD-ROM 
product reduces hard disk useage by maintaining some files only on the CD.
