No, but is that any better than PC Atari and Stella? I would use Stella but it is a DOS emulator (no Windows GUI).

It's faster, and since I top-posted, there's no harm done. You see, you read my post on top and don't read all the stuff below. Are you really claiming that you read to the bottom??? (Yes, I know he plonked me).
Learn to use usenet, Gareth (don't just blindly depend on the "rules" that others have given you). Oh, in case you're reading this in someone else's reply, PLONK.

Well, you're OK anyway as you saved a second in your hectic and vastly more important life.

And if everyone did the same, those people on modems will spend longer downloading it, the server storage requirements will go up etc. Happily most other people are more considerate.

I've only been using it 14 years so what the hell do I know.
Bottom line is you were wrong to do what you did and no amount of posturing will change that.

You know, it's one thing to top-post, breaking one of the more articulate and 'loose' of Usenetituette's terms, the rules are there for ease of use by others; a common courtesy if you will. That said, trying to be a rebel by flaunting that particular courtesy makes you look less like a rebel and more like a....choad, really.

Why does console games discussion get cross-posted into comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.strategic? Anyone who wants to play Gauntlet or Gauntlet 2 on a PC platform has long since running it in an emulator. Such news are completely pointless to this ng.
