I don't have any links, but just to clarify terminology --
There is no "Pentium/Win95" edition MW2 Mercs. All "standard" Mercs CDs from version 1.0 have both DOS and Win95/"Pentium" versions on them. There's also a rare 3dfx version that Venom posted about awhile ago that he got running with varying success (I don't remember entirely). I think then the only other version is Titanium, which is Windows-only.

actually there is one more version..."Enhanced D3D Edition", but yah exactly like npsbre said there is no pentium edition of mercs.
Unfortuneatly now on ebay there are no 95 versions that are cheap, I can give you a
link to the DOS version though which comes with all three games.
It expires in 6 days.

It probably should work, but I cannot tell based on the picture... they did not put any details whether it is dos or 95, that is why i left it out of my links.
You may end up getting something for $20 which may only be DOS. IMO you should wait for a better deal to come along, or take the link i provided of the DOS version, or ask the seller which version of Mercenaries it is.

Hold on I just got a reply from the seller from the first link I gave you with all 3 games..
It is 95/DOS... I would highly suggest you go for that one, it is a much much better deal!
Anyway Link is
here
Ends in 5 days but it is worth the wait if you can get all 3 games for less than $20
