Anyone who has ELITE from Firebird for the C-64 will agree it is a fantastic 
3-D game.  I particularly enjoy the opportunity to practice space dogfighting 
(and docking).
	However, and you may agree, for the casual player, the game is
demanding.  Out-gunned and out-numbered, space is a dangerous place.
Ever imagine how fun it would be to go after those pirates with a REAL 
weapon, like a military laser?   I succumbed to temptation.  Rather than
leave the game sit and not be played (as I was doing),  I broke into the
code to give myself just a little more cash to get started with.
	If there is anyone that shares an interest here, and could use $25,000 
or so starting the game, let me know and I can provide the 'how-to's'.
	
Oh, by the way, blasting those pirates IS a heck of a lot of fun, and a docking
computer keeps you from spilling your hard won cargo all over space!
