(Take a close look at >their most recent catalogue, it's a laugh). It's funny you mentioned this, it reminds me of the TIME magazine article I read a week or two back. (I think it was the last week of July) There was an article about how executives are using their PC's to play games. They went on to describe some games like golf simulations, war simulations, Balance of Power and Starflight to name a few. The funny thing was, that the article mentioned two "business" PC's, the IBM PC and the Mac. HOWEVER the two pictures that went with the article were scenes from Mean 18 by Accolade and Balance of Power, both unmistakebly taken from the Amiga version of said games. *SIGH* and Rodney says HE get's no respect. -- "Truth is false and logic lost..." - Neil Peart (who at the time didn't realize he was talking about RU) lachac@topaz.rutgers.edu <--------OR--------> {seismo|ames}!rutgers!topaz!lachac
