Richard, This didn't occur to me until this afternoon, but there IS a precedent for Sierra reinstating support for a platform that, at one point or another, looked too unprofitable. At one point, we withdrew support for the Mac. Mac game sales were languishing badly (not just for Sierra, but for most domestic game companies) and we just couldn't justify the expense of the reprogramming. But we resumed Mac support quite awhile later, when Apple became more aggressive and released all the new Mac systems that brought Macs into many more homes. I have my fingers crossed that CBM does it right with the AGA systems (and that the public responds in kind). It could make all the difference. -Josh
