Earlier I reported that I was having trouble with Populous (garbage on screen,
etc.).  It happened a couple of times one night, I rebooted the machine after
it locked up, and then it happened a third time.
Since then, I have played Populous many times and the problem has not
reoccurred.  Maybe there was something left over in memory that Populous
didn't like, and I should have turned off the machine?  In any case, Populous
is one of the BEST strategy games I have ever played on the Amiga.  Sort of a
real-time Risk game that you can play against the computer or against another
player over a modem.  The interface is excellent, and the game is very
addicting.
