Missing Games
The 2006 version of the King's Quest Compilation lacks both the original AGI King's Quest and the windows versions of the later games (most notably the enhanced windows version of King's Quest 6), and Mask of Eternity (a windows 95 game). KQ7 is version 1.4 not the updated version 2.0 and thus lacks dos support.

King's Quest 1+2+3, 4+5+6, and 7+8 collections (2010)
Three collections consisting of the classic AGI versions of King's Quest I-III, 4-5-6, and 7-8 released by Activison through GOG.com.

The 1-3 collection lacks the SCI remake, but rather includes the games that represent the classic series (how it was originally made). The 7-8 collection includes the 2.0 version of KQ7, and is the first time Mask of Eternity has been updated to run on Vista and Windows 7.
