Surprise! Surprise! MacRISK has escaped. Those responsible for posting it to
the net should have exercised more restraint. It was not public domain.

I have been negotiating with Parker Brothers and their Licensee Virgin Games
for over a year about selling MacRISK. Virgin Games has finally decided they
weren't interested. So the bad news is I won't be getting any richer. The
good news is that you're all welcome to keep your ill-gotten copies.

I am interested in hearing about compatibility problems etc. The existing
version was never intended to be more than a demo. I'm surprised it runs under
multi-finder and on the SE. It doesn't support color and the computer players
are awful.

Since I do have more important things to do (a thesis to write) I can't promise
a new version anytime soon. I'm glad you all like it.
