Can anyone confirm this? > Leo L. Schwab ihnp4!ptsfa!well!ewhac When I talked with Dave at the West Coast Computer Faire he mentioned that there were plans to do an Amiga version of the Magic Sac. He was looking for some programmers who new the Amiga display better than he did since his expertise is apparently in the 'porting' process rather than the implementation process. (Basically, he didn't want to spend 3 months learning the ins and outs of the Amiga just for one project). Maybe you should call this guy Leo. -- --Chuck McManis uucp: {anywhere}!sun!cmcmanis BIX: cmcmanis ARPAnet: cmcmanis@sun.com These views are my own and no one elses.
