OK - I know this isn't a new subject, but I just got myself a hard disk and so am now interested in installing a couple of my more popular games on said disk. So, the questions: 1. Can it be done ? 2. If so how ? Any advice/tips are welcome. Stuart (mitchell@uk.cray.com)

If you already own an early version of Falcon, you should contact the
manufacturers about getting an upgrade. I think the HD-installable version
is 1.1, and they'll charge you $7.50 or so, plus your Disk #1. If you don't
already own the game, the version in any store should be the HD-compatible
one.

This article motivated me to upgrade my copy of Falcon vintage 1.0 to a more timely version (one that can land hopefully!). I called Spectrum Holobyte and spoke with a friendly and helpful woman. She informed me that the most recent version of Amiga Falcon is 1.2. The upgrade entails sending a check or money order for $5.00, your original disk #1, and a little note stating that you want to upgrade to Amiga Falcon v1.2 to: Spectrum Holobyte Attn: Customer Support 2061 Challenger Drive Alameda, CA 94501 The phone # is (415)522-3584 -- UUCP: crash!pro-graphics!critical.mass | Critical Mass Software ARPA/DDN: pro-graphics!critical.mass@nosc.mil | P.O.

If you don't, and if you get a sheet with your disk saying what they are, could you post a summary here? I have 1.1 and I would like to know if it is worth the trouble...
