I totally agree with your philosophy on this. I love your silver dollar game, and I really, really can't wait for more games from you. I think what you're doing, is really leveling the game-playing field for us mac users. Before, we only had RS-games. And even that wasn't a true audio game. Now, now we have so much mor ahead of us, I'm really excited for the future of the mac and games for the blind on that system. Devin Prater [email protected]
