A friend had Starglider(?) which supposedly would boot on both Amiga and ST. It didn't work on his system, but he didn't worry too much; he had a couple funky boards installed. He asked me to try it on my machines (I have both Amiga and ST). It wouldn't boot on the Amiga, so I tried the ST. I got a perfectly good copy of Test Drive for the ST. I guess both companies had their disks replicated by the same firm. +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Kitakaze Tatsu Raito Neil Gilmore internet:gilmore@macc.wisc.edu | | Jararvellir, MACC, UW-Madison bitnet: gilmore@wiscmac3 | | Middle Kingdom Madison, Wi | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
