>From some information I got off of America on Line, I've come to the
conclusion that there is a change we might get the publisher of Sim City
to write for our platform if we just write and indicate there is an 
interest.

Why they haven't written this game for the Apple IIGS is beyond my
comprehension.  SimCity was the most popular game/simulation for the IBM and
the Mac last year.  And as you might know, this is also considered an
educational program (teaches you about running a city, etc.).  It amazes me
when a software publisher doesn't recognize a market for his product.

Anyway, if you're interested in seeing this game come about, write:

        Maxis
        1042 Country Club Drive
        Suite C
        Morgana, California   94556

One of the Maxis programmers indicated that a stream of letters might lead
them to go ahead with this project.

I would imagine it wouldn't be too difficult; they could port over a lot of
it from the Mac.
