Eh? *confused* I was just suggesting instead of making both mags
have some techy stuff, and some game stuff, that one concentrated on one
area, and the other on the er other. Is FRED disk mag going to continue side

He originally said the game was finished and he only needed to put
in some protection which he said would take very little time. We've waited
over a year now and the thing still hasn't been distributed - I suppose
that's about the best protection against piracy you can get :) Oh well, at
least you got him talking...And the time I've waited for Kaboom! doesn't
compare to the time I've waiting (and still waiting...) for my SAM_Clock
refund ;) (Just like to get my little dig in there...)
