1. Yes. You can download if from Microsoft at:
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/Softlib/MSLFILES/OLDDOS.EXE
2. Technically, no. If you want to buy it legally, you have to buy it used from a place like ebay or
emsps.com.
3. Yes, if someone is willing to buy it
4. Yes, if you legally own QB 4.5.
5. No, as long as you legally own the compiler you used, you are free to sell anything that you make with it. (Provided that the code is all yours, or you have a license for other code used.)

3. Unfortunately, dont expect anyone to pay for it. =P Qb games just purely aint good enough, and there are so many decent games out there for free.

No, I was talking about making an RTS, but I needed help with it, and nobody wanted to help...
