If you have a nice and fast PowerMac it can run more than one instance of Bolo, each running a brain and playing VS each other. :) Get Bolo at http://www.lgm.com/bolo There is also WinBolo and LinBolo (for Linux). WinBolo and LinBolo can play VS each other but as of yet their modern client/server TCP/IP networking doesn't communicate with Mac Bolo's old ring type AppleTalk or UDP networking. Looks like a project for someone to make a server or translater app to allow a Mac Bolo game to "plug in" to TCP/IP. :) ===== "The earth swarms with inhabitants.
