Thanks for the many memorable games of Starweb.  And I think your company may have invented the solo game/programmed adventure? If so, another tip of the hat to you. I even played Tunnels & Trolls a few times. |

I am so very sorry to hear this. He'll be sorely missed by all that knew him. Dan |

He gave us all a *lot*. First person to buy a computer exclusively to play games. The Raytheon 704 had a CPU running at 1 kHz and had 8k of memory. He got a lot of important people started. He was a visionary, but not a self-aggrandizing one. Let's be thankful such a person existed. We could use a lot more like him. |
