I uploaded oregon trail to my site if anyone is interested.

It's the color version, I couldn't get sound, you'll probably have to d/l a deaccelerator but it's there. Happy trails.

You're welcome.

Anyone, please let me know if you're able to get sound when running through windows. Whoops, I forgot I unplugged my system speaker (it was chirping). That's probably why I don't have DOS sound. Anyways, let me know if anyone gets sound.

No sound for me.

It's okay, though. I don't remember what the sounds were like anyway.

classic. i keep playing and playing. i almost got five people in fair health as a farmer, BUT i hit a rock on the river at the very end (it was blocking the damn place you're suppose to get off at). almost had 7000 points but no. something always goes wrong in the game. i play using me, my gf, eno, bowie, and reed. i will stop and rest if eno gets sick. reed just needs to tough it. maybe i should bring nico along and throw her to the wolves.

a pack of wolves draw near.
nico is eaten by wolves.
reed, thinking about his career, runs away.

I, also, like to talk about 'OT'...as I now refer to it.  I am determined to get to the end.  I never have.  I need to utilize Mr. Eno2's tips.  He seems to know what he's talking about.

I thought of a new one to play with the Features as characters: Stardom Trail. You buy gear and plan a tour and make money from good setlists. Some of the difficulties include:

Lose a guitarist, lose 1 year.

Richard Williams can't promote a record out of a paper bag with Spongebath. Lose 4 years.

Guitar doesn't stay in tune. Lose money on show.

You plan if you want to go through New York or LA (or London) and where you'll stop along the way.
I can't grow a beard, and I don't like to party.
