    I've never seen this, it wouldn't by any chance show samples 
of unreleased Cinemaware games that never made it out, like S.D.I 
or It Came From the Desert, would it? (a la Sword of Sodan demo)
I wouldn't mind seeing this, is it on any of the FTP sites out
there?

    With the exception of maybe two or three of the above, I've never 
seen any of these GS Underground demos you've listed (though somehow 
I doubt I would be missing much, I remember them being pretty poor ;).

    Actually, The Gate (demonstration preview disk) and the game that was
eventually released, was done by Bright Software.  I think the fact that 
Toolbox published some products for both FTA and Bright Software confused
some people. I remember some people (or was it a software vendor?) thinking 
SpaceFox and Tetris II were FTA products, which of course they were not. :)
