The first version I released had a lock-up problem on A1000 that DON'T have
internal expansion memory.  It seems that A1000's WITH internal memory
expansion and all A500's, A2000's and A3000's have a little bit more CHIP
RAM availathan an A1000 WITHOUT internal memory expansion (for some
reason I'm not aware of).  Anyway, the game locks-up because the StarBase
graphic is just a little too large for these particular machines (not enough
CHIP RAM).  I released a small fix file (the next day I think) that has
a smaller StarBase graphic and works ok on these machines.  I know this fix
file is on Plink (I put it there), and I image everywhere else the game is
found.  Oh, and I wrote the thing almost three years ago now...  My, how time
flies...  :^)
