Hello, everybody. This is Ben Haller, the guy who wrote Solarian II (my personal slave Andrei is temporarily incapacitated, so I've got to do the work for once). I've never posted before in my life, so forgive my errors. Well, the point is that Solarian II version 1.02 is now (3/27/90) posted on sumex-aim.stanford.edu. Just as with this now, I'm kind of clueless, and I think I did it wrong, but the only problem (I think) is that it is in the 'pub' directory, instead of being in info-mac.games. So it goes. It is StuffIted and Binhexed, and split into 5 parts. It *is* there, so you just need to find it (until they remove it for no apparent reason...) What's the difference, I hear a small group of addicts cry. Well, first of all it fixes the MultiFinder update bug and it now works with all keyboards. But, more than that, it has a few more Nifty Sounds, it lets you configure your keys to your wits end (no more excuses for low scores, folks!), it has slightly nicer graphics, slightly better user interface, etc. So, the moral of the story: download and prosper. And please, re-post it on your favorite hangout spots. Right now it is *only* at sumex-aim, which isn't so great. And send your money. Anyone with flames regarding my massive mishandling of this posting please address it to me personally. -Ben Haller, Stick Software (deadman@garnet.berkeley.edu) "The State! Always and ever the government and it's rulers and operators have been considered above the general moral law. ...For centuries the State has committed mass murder and called it "war"; then ennobled the mass slaughter that "war" involves. For centuries the State has enslaved people into its armed battalions and called it "conscription" in the "national service." For centuries the State has robbed people at bayonet point and called it "taxation."" - Murray Rothbard, "For A New Liberty"
