Josh, out of curiosity, in the case of the Mac, about how long after the
release of the lower priced color Macs did it take for Sierra to decide to
resume product development? And after the decision was made, how long did it
take actual product to reach a lot of dealer's shelves?
Believing that I do that FUN software is the real reason for spending one's own
money on a computer, and that "productivity" software merely helps to
rationalize the purchase, I feel plenty disappointed at not being able to
indulge in Eco Quest or any of the other new titles. Yet, I'm also wary of the
risk of unloading one's system too soon–I did this with my Mac II and shortly
thereafter got a rude surprise when MORE GAMES starting hitting the market,
including Space Quest IV! Wasn't until the other month that I finally got to
play SQ4 and LL5 on my new Amiga 1200. I have been pretty much buying all of
the older titles when I find them, but my stockpile is drying up!
