Managing Editor Neil Strother went to Dinosaur over the weekend. And he can't stop blabbing about it.

And if your kids (or co-workers) can't get enough of the big lizards, here is a trio of downloads that hit the dino sweet spot.

Age of Dinosaurs 3D Screen Saver's "camera" pans and tilts around a near-realistic 3D world where you observe this giant prehistoric creature along with his Stegosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, and Pteranodon pals. (Shareware/Win95-98-NT-2000) Click for more.

Magic School Bus Explores in the Age of Dinosaurs lets kids build their own dinosaur skeleton. Once the skeleton is complete, the dinosaur comes roaring to life, and you'll hear the various facts about that dinosaur. (Shareware/Win3.1) Click for more.

Trespasser puts you in the shoes of Anne, the heroine stranded on the abandoned Site B Island of Jurassic Park. The dinosaurs feature realistic animal-like behavior and reactions. With up to 50 sounds for each dinosaur, the audio environment is stunningly realistic (Demo/Win95-98) Click for more.

We don't mind Neil talking about dinosaurs. It sure beats last week's toga party after he took his wife to Gladiator.

P.S. If you need help, I've linked the Easy Download Guide in the sidebar. For more downloads, be sure to bookmark our Killer Downloads page. Click for more.
