        I talked to the guy who wrote the Mac version of Ultima (tm) ]I[.
Origin tested it on a mac+ as soon as they got one.  It did work.  (even the
arrow keys on the mac+ keyboard worked.  He got brownie points for that one.)
I can't help wondering if you are talking of Ultima (tm) ][, (but I think
that works also.)  Maybe Origin was running an uncopy-protected version or
something.  PERHAPS someone else with a mac+ and Ultima (tm) ]I[ can
confirm that it doesn't work and MAIL me the results.
	I'll relay this message to the mac version author when I next talk to
him.
	By the way, Ultima (tm) IV for the mac is in the works, but don't
look for it on your computer store's shelves this week (or next, or...).
