It's nice being able to put these programs on a hard drive.  After getting
a hard drive, I see why people don't like to touch regular disks again.
I have Lode Runer as a prodos 8 SYS file and BIN files containing level
disks.  The program also replaced that slow circle between levels with a
quick wipe and responds to lower case letters.  Lode Runner is my favorite
oldie I bought.

It exists in the GS version.  To get to it, go to the skinny zig zag
track at the end of the first level and jump over onto the platform on
the left side.  Center youself with the middle zig zag track and go as
far left as you can.  When the timer hits about 14 seconds an elevator
will take you to the water maze.
