I received the following from an unnamed source (I can tell you that it definitely wasn't Saddam Hussain) in the mail.... It's a post from a BBS... Title : stuph Author : Blue Adept [Alan] of USAlliance (#8) * Elite * Posted : Tuesday, January 15th, 1991 at 12:51:30 AM. Post # : 88 of 100 I spoke with richard garriot today about Ultima VI. They actually tried to write it on an apple IIe 128k. They had to cancel the project though because they totally ran out of memory on a 128k apple. therefore their isn't going to be an ultima VI //e even though they tried....one bright note though. When I talked to bill hienaman today he mentioned that he would love to program ultima VI on the GS...so tommorrow bill is going to try and get in touch with richard and we might see an Ultima VI GS come from the meeting. later ---end of quote-- Personally, I don't see how they can make a Commodore 64 version and not a //e version, since the 64 has only 64K of memory (right? The 128 has 128K of memory).. and probably the same kinds of other general limitations as 8 bit 6502 based computers. -- /Apple II(GS) Forever! unknown@ucscb.ucsc.edu MAIL ME FOR INFO ABOUT CHEAP CDs\ \WRITE TO ORIGIN ABOUT ULTIMA VI //e and IIGS!
