Wing Commander is blocky and slow running on anything under less than a 386 SX with 4 MB RAM. And I suggest you turn the sound off, unless you like hearing the sound of something or someone being squeezed through a sieve) When Wing Commander comes out for Amiga (and it will) I'm certain it will be run much faster and less clunkier graphics. And I guess you haven't seen The Killing Game Show or Awesome. Oh but wait!! They don't make that for IBM. > > Are you high on crack, or have you just been staring at your Amoeba's GURU > screen for too long? > Ooooh. Are you that weak that you have to bring *drugs* into the picture? I would rather have my Amiga say "Software Failure" than just smooth lock up on me and I have to Ctrl-Alt-Delete or just snap the damn thing off and on again. > FRESH, huh? And I bet you think the New Kids are a FRESH BAND? Personally, I hate the New Kids, just as much as I hate IBM. > > Amoeba -- it moves so slowlee... IBM: so big and clunkee... Look Jerry, If the dip who had flamed the amiga in the first place had been a little more objective I wouldn't have rushed in and flamed IBM. IBM is such an overpriced, underpowered machine that I had to say something. I practically know MS-DOS in and out so I know its good and bad spots. Unfortunately, I can't understand why so many people are jockin' IBM like underwear. And please don't waste your pro-IBM crap on comp.sys.amiga.games. You had my EMAIL address. You should have EMAILED me personally instead. You crack-monster you. IBM = (I)ce Age (B)rontosaurus (M)achine Not ready error reading drive A Abort, Retry, Ignore, Fail?
