The question that would not die.  I've had people ask me if it will run on
the IBM PC, too.  No, Solarian II will only run on machines that have
640x480 (or larger) 8-bit monitors.
  And yes, it would be nice if you could "trick" Solarian II into running
on a Mac Classic, too.  Only problem is, there's no way to do it.
Ain't that a shame?
