Message-ID: <11704@cup.portal.com> Date: 24 Nov 88 03:09:28 GMT References: Organization: The Portal System (TM) Lines: 17 InfoCom in fact *will* be releasing those titles for the ST but as with most game companies they are releasing the games in the big money IBM market first - wait a year and they will be out for the ST. When InfoCom dropped the text games for the ST they commented that their policy would be to hold off on new ST games until they could fully utilize the ST's graphic power. Also remember that a computer is not measured by games! If you want to play games get a Nintendo (opps - I mean Atari .) The past few months we have seen PageSTream, SuperBase Professional, DynaCadd, and other great programs that either match or FAR outclass anything on any MS-DOS machine. Atari is now pumping 50-75,000 Megas a MONTH!! Those machines are going somewhere. Atari UK has shown and may have released the laptop ST already, Atari Canada has been selling PC clones for months and West Germany has shown the 030 box and the EST. Things are finally getting *better* not worse! Hang in there! Pete
