I'm now level nine, apparently, which makes me an Ikari Warrior, which given it's a good, (if rock hard) game, I have no problems with. I recently discovered Gamepsot had a page for the C64 version of Elite, hence the review.

Currently pinning my hopes on Dark Star One, which the German magazine PC PowerPlay seems to regard as a classic with the elder gamer of the three calling it the rightful descendant fo Elite, we shall see in due course I reckon.

In other news, my wife is due back for an extended trip home shortly, which is very, good news indeed.

I have also been extensively amused by the MPAA's attempts to kill the prirate bay, it was down for all of three days, even after the police emptied the server room. Less downtime than when the admin had flu, which is worth a chuckle if nothing else.

Then I saw this:

chown -R us ./base

Which made me laugh, so I had to buy the T-shirt, should you want one too you can find them here: www.jinx.com

Enjoy
