Yes this is absolutely correct. Interactive fiction is very much alive
as a
look at ifarchive.org will show.

You can't (legally) download Infocom games, as Activision still has them
copyrighted. Even though the last time they put them on a CD was in 1996
that stopped being printed two years later, they still hold that
copyright
like a bunch of lamprys. That said, I hear through the underground grape
vine that *is* the interweb that Activision will be coming out with an
Infocom collection in the near future; on the other hand, well, I'll
believe
it when I see it.
As for other Inform (or "zcode") games, there is an absolutely huge
reposatory of freeware games that you'll now be able to play at
http://mirror.ifarchive.org. Just select the mirror that works best for
you,
then go to games, then zcode. You're rolling.
That is, when keysoft 7 is released, naturally. :)

I've looked for those Infocom games on the net and I don't think
they're
available anymore. IF I'm wrong, would someone please help me acquire
them,
as I'd *love* to play them on my MPower. Most of the sites which have
come
up in Google are really out of date.
cheers

Hey Jonathan.
I assune you're talking about the games you can get from infocom or
Malinche Entertainment, right? The ones that are z8 or z5. I mean
that have tho se extensions. I am relaly looking forward to this
part--so much so that I know I will have to discipline myself to only
play so much or I won't get a darned thing done.
Checked ont he price of an SMA, and will be ordering a new one once I
download KS7. :)
