You can grab a few old ones from me10.lbl.gov via anonymous ftp
(username ftp, password your_email_address)

There is source for old (X11R[2-3]) versions of backgammon, mazewar,
xmille, and tetris.  These are known to compile under R3.  There may
be other interesting things there, just grab the ls-lRt.Z file and
poke around.  If you are running R4, these will still work, and most
PD netware will also work.

>A lonely hp with no tetris!

You poor, lonely, un-tetris-mesmerized soul. :-)

>PS : Send any mail to (..!uunet!cscwam.umd.edu!pao )

Well, this is good advise for those with uucp, but then most uucp
connected folks already know how to get to internet sites.  Why not
just say pao@cscwam.umd.edu?
