I purchased a used amiga with a large amount of software. It is all on the original, paid for disks. Most has full documentation, boxes and all of that other stuff. The games (The Empire Strikes Back and arakinoid (sp)) do not. I don't have the time to try to track down the addresses of the publishers for a couple of games that I use only a few times a month. I've been tempted to post here for info, but have better things to do with my time than deal with a bunch of self appointed "net police" who have nothing better to do than annoy people. -- Mentor Graphics Silicon Development Division Kenneth Rentz work (503) 626-7000 X 3674 home (503) 245-2173 krentz@pdx.MENTOR.COM ...{sequent, tessi, gssc, apollo}!mntgfx!krentz "I am not a number I am a human being!" #6, The Prisoner
