I went to the local used video game store this evening just to look
around.*  They also sell old overstock computer games.  I discovered a
couple published by IBM back in 1995.  I was aware they published
several games in the early days, but nothing so recent.  Looking at
MobyGames, I see one game from 1993, but all the rest are from the
early-to-mid 1980s.  I was particularly intrigued by one called
"Power:  The Game."  Anyone know if it's much fun?

* Boring details:  Well, actually, I was reading the copy of "Halcyon
Days" (www.dadgum.com/giantlist) I recently bought. (*Highly*
recommended to all subscribers of this list.)  This revealed to me
that Bill Budge released Pinball Construction Set on the Sega Genesis
as Virtual Pinball.  They, indeed, had two copies of it, but at $29.95
I'll pass!
