Well, I took the plunge and I have recently purchased the new MAC SE (dual
floppy model).  It should be arriving soon.  In the meantime, I would like
some of your recommendations on the following:

1)  Good games for the MAC, preferrably adventure/fantasy type games that DO
    NOT require any other devices other than the mouse and keyboard to be
    played.  Also, I prefer those games that are graphic as opposed to
    verbal (e.g. PHM Pegasus vs. ZORK).

2)  I recently saw a game called something like "Challenger:  Space Shuttle
    Simulator" (is this game any good?)

3)  What good word processors are there out there and WHY do you like them?
    (Note:  I will be running output off the Imagewriter II printer.)

4)  Does anyone know if the game "Dark Castle" runs on the SE?  How does it
    rate against other games (the few I have seen) that will run on the Mac?


Thank you for any feedback that you can provide.

P.S.  Can anyone give me the specific height (in inches) of an Imagewriter II
      at its highest point?
