This one was a reall toss-up between .emulations and .games, but here goes: Does anyone know if its possible to run SimEarth under AMAX? How much memory would I need? I'd just like to get a definite response before making a purchase. Its not a cheap game by any measure, but it looks neat. Also, any idea when an Amiga conversion is due? I was impressed by the quality of the SimCity port, hopefully they will take similar care transporting SimEarth. -- | Robert E.

The port's being done in Europe, unlike the SimCity conversion. Call 'em up and pester them! +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Dallas J.
