I discovered yesterday that I can multitask Marble Madness with Bilbo's Hideaway running in background. Anything else won't work so far and running nothing won't work either. But it's no fare 'cause to get out of Marble Madness you have to warm boot. So, I was wondering: Has any hacker type been able to modify their beloved legitimate copy of Marble Madness to behave like "normal" software? It is to bad EA has such a bend toward copy protection that they don't enhance Marble Madness. What a great game! Dark Castle will multitask too but it includes a quit option that undoes everything back to normal CLI, which I guess is all I'd like Marble Madness to do. Now, if Byte would just give me back a little money on my subscription (It's been 3 issues since I cancelled and that leaves 3 issues to go) I'd find something else to bitch about. =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ Bill Daggett, a.k.a. *Bilbo Baggins* Recombinant Hobbit and Sysop of * Sometimes The Dragon Wins! * Bilbo's Hideaway = 213-640-6104 INTERNET: bilbo@pnet02.CTS.COM UUCP: {hplabs!hp-sdd!crash, ihnp4!scgvaxd }!gryphon!pnet02!bilbo
