There's no hope other than keeping your 1050. I called Sublogic on the rumor that there was an upgrade disk and they quite clearly told me to get stuffed. Thanks guys. I've got a 386 too, and had fun with Flight Sim 4.0, but now that I'm running Unix I need flight sim back on the 8-bit and - sigh - no dice. Anyone out there good with 6502 game to wander through the disk and pull the protection scheme? Terry Conklin uunet!frith!conklin conklin@egr.msu.edu The Club (517) 372-3131
