What happened to creating games on the mac and porting them to the ibm? The beta version I saw wasn't too impressive. Then again, Test Drive isn't too impressive. They've been promising Vette for years now...I wouldn't get my hopes up about that November release. They also announced a color version of Falcon for the mac. I wouldn't get my hopes up over that either. Sphere had great promise, but they decided to support IBM. Although I'm angry, I can understand that...there's probably more money in making games for IBM. ins_apw@jhunix.HCF.JHU.EDU <--use this address, not the UUCP one
