- I have to agree. I have Speed Ball II for my A500 and my room mate back at
- school went ahead and bought it for his 486/33 when he played the Amiga version.
- Needless to say, the IBM version is a pain to play because of the analog
- controls (keyboard couldn't possibly hack it in this fast a game!) and the
- sound and graphics weren't quite as good either. My roommate has both a Roland
- and a SBPro on his system too!! It ended up that we had entire tournaments
- using only my measly A500 w/1Meg RAM instead of his powerhouse PC....
-
- I was glad when finals came and everybody had to study... I actually got
- to use my computer!!!!
