He said that it got in the way so much that it essentially made the game unplayable. He decided to "just say no" and called MacConnection and got an authorization to return it. So, the advice seems to be -- AVOID THIS GAME. -- Geoff Allen \ WINCO doesn't believe in Macs, {uunet|bigtex}!pmafire!geoff \ so of course these are my views. ucdavis!egg-id!pmafire!geoff \
