Aren't these just mirrors or archive.umich.edu?
I've been trying a lot of the various software here, and I'm not having
much success. (Executor/Linux 1.99k)
Realmz 1.62 bombs with a Floating Point Error, and many other games
won't even think of running. I haven't had too much success with the
utility set, either.

sumex-aim.stanford.edu:/pub/info-mac (aka `info-mac') and it's mirrors
are also good mac software archives.

thanks for the feedback. we (here at ardi) are trying very hard to
make executor more successful.

yes, the realmz problem has been reported before, and will be dealt
with at some point in the future. thank you for your bug report
nonetheless.
what other games? we cannot fix bugs we do not know about. what is
`the utility set'?
we prefer that you report any and all bugs you find by sending a bug
report to us at ardi with the send-pr package, which can be retrieved
from `ftp.cs.unm.edu:/pub/ardi/Executor_Linux/send-pr.tar.gz', the
same place you pick up beta versions of executor. it will prompt your
for the appropriate information and descriptions of the problems your
are having.
alteratively, you can send email to bugs@ardi.com. please tell us the
operating system, version of executor, what program your are having
problems with (what version, where we can find the program, or who we
can purchase it from, etc), and exactly what the problems are, with
explicit instructions to reproduce them.
only then will we best equipped to fix these bugs, which benefits us
both.
remember, no bug is too big and no bug is too small. we want bug
reports that say `this program eats flaming death on startup' just as
much as those that say `the icon in this dialog comes up in b/w when
it should be color' or `drawing is slightly off here' or `rounded
rects are drawn incorrectly, and that makes default buttons look
_horrible_!'. any incompatibility with the mac should be reported.
