Oh man you guys are bringing back some memories. Except for me they're memories from 9th grade. ;-)

Sneaking into the high school computer lab to play some Zork, Hitchhikers or Castle Wolfenstein.

I assume that y'all have seen some of the classic gaming sites out there? They have emulators of most of the old game, and "pc-type", platforms and copies of most, if not all, of the games.

>>I've still got my "Don't Panic" button and my original 5.25 disk. All I've got to do is drag out the Atari. Just some silly stuff, by my favorite line was about the "Ravenous..." I can't remember the rest, except that it was so stupid that it thought that if you couldn't it, it couldn't see you. Another good use for the towel.:-)
