I've heard several people say that it runs very nicely on accellerated Amigas/A3000's, so I'm hanging onto my copy for the day when I finally move up. On an A500 with 2.5MB of memory, though, I find it too slow to play. It's stayed in its box since the second day I've owned it. Sigh. It's funny. FA/18 is like TFH's opposite twin. Great "feel" and fighting speed, but pretty thin in the missions dept. If TFH had FA/18's basic feel, without sacrificing the mission detail, I'd probably starve to death from forgetting to eat. :-) Jordan -- PCS Computer Systeme GmbH, Munich, West Germany UUCP: pyramid!pcsbst!jkh jkh@meepmeep.pcs.com EUNET: unido!pcsbst!jkh ARPA: jkh@violet.berkeley.edu or hubbard@decwrl.dec.com
