No problem, I figured others besides me would be interested in it. Got to
agree on the bit about hoping others will post simular info.... Hmmm, maybe
an idea for a web page there (actually wouldn't surprise me if there already
is a web page up for this).

ISTR, seeing a couple other cases of this, and in some cases they even
release the source code.

Unfortunatly I didn't have time to get the Amiga 3000 out of storage, and
it's the only way I can make floppies for the Amiga 500. So I didn't get to
try any of the games out, didn't even get a chance to download any.

The wierd thing on the ROMs is that IIRC, they listed the Amiga and Atari
versions as ROMs?!?!
