    I know this is off topic but Video_Game_Addict would you mind getting on AIM every now and then?
    You live pretty close to me and I'm trying to start a gaming club in our area.

    This is great stuff. I was rarely a fan of the Infocom games, but I really wish this style of game was still around today. My favorite title by a mile was Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I even had the official hint book, which was nearly as funny as the game. I always wondered if Douglas Adams wrote the hint book, too.

    Good luck, keep it up.

    I have all the Zork games and Planetfall (got them in one Mac bundle for a mere $15 Cdn). I also used to have Arthur, but that game wasn't compatible with Mac System 7, so I stopped playing it when my parents upgraded their Mac SE/30 from System 6.

    Oh, and for those who didn't know, you can play Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy for free in a Java version available on Douglas Adams' official website (http://www.douglasadams.com/creations/infocomjava.html). I know he wanted to re-release the game commercially, but I think the project was iced indefinitely when Adams passed away nearly 2 years ago.

    thanks for the link, vga, $375.00 for the saucer, wow. I have seen the saucer in the shops in 1985 for Atari XL, also the moving face box, and I never picked them up because they were $45.00 each. I wish I had now.

    I won't do more detail, since I want to get all my systems on my website (50 consoles/computers with software) and my ISP only gives me 10 MB webspace.
