They made specific reference to FA-18 and F16 Falcon. Guess which computer they showed them on? Yep.. an Amiga 500, of course they didn't mention the name of the computer :(. They also showed a PD game called Scud Attack... This one ran on a IBM clone... it made wonderful 'woooooo-boom' noises... you know the kind! F16 Falcon was running on the A500 (as was FA18)... looked good and sounded good, the computer in the F16 even said 'pull up! pull up!' like it does. Now if they'd only mention the name!!! -- Brian Heil ) University of Iowa bheil@scout-po.biz.uiowa.edu ( College of Business Administration bheil@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu ) Computing Services Organization AMIGA There is no substitute!
