Message-ID: <2424@dalcs.UUCP> Date: Sun, 1-Mar-87 19:20:27 EST Article-I.D.: dalcs.2424 Posted: Sun Mar 1 19:20:27 1987 Date-Received: Mon, 2-Mar-87 07:12:54 EST Organization: Marine Ecology Lab. Lines: 12 Keywords: AAArgh I've just heard from a reliable source (my dealer) that on Friday Batteries Included was bought out by Electronic Arts. The staff is uncertain what this means. I don't know what it means. What happens to Tom Hudson? No more programs like Degas (maybe no more programs like I*S Talk on the other hand)? Copy protection? Another Canadian firm sold out south of the border? Will PaperClip Elite ever arrive? What will Simon Poole say? -- Bill Silvert Marine Ecology Laboratory, Dartmouth, NS, Canada CDN or BITNET: silvert@cs.dal.cdn -- UUCP: ..!{seismo|utai}!dalcs!silvert ARPA: silvert%dalcs.uucp@seismo.CSS.GOV -- CSNET: silvert%cs.dal.cdn@ubc.csnet
