Hi Charles,
Actually, Pong pre-dates the era of personal computers. The first
electronic Pong game was for the Atari 2600, and it consisted of a drab
gray screen, two black rackets, and a black ball you and your buddy

Hi,
Yeah, installing a from fresh Sapi install usually fixes the issues.
However, only install Sapi 5.1 if you are running 2000/XP. Installing
5.1 on Vista, which requires 5.3, might really fubar the speech for good.

Definitely. The classic pong didn't really have sounds. Just the typical
beeps and boops of classic vidio game history. Pong and Combat have got

yeah, I remember that now that you mention it. I would imagine the
reason the balls had that weird shape is do to the fact digitally
creating squares and rectangles are infinitely easier than making
rounded objects like balls, ovals, and other objects with a more rounded
appearance.
what i did is i installed 1.53 before installing 1.51 so i went and

1.53 it now won't run and i am getting that password problem
