Hehehe...well put...  My 2 favorite games ever are Wasteland and AutoDuel. 
Fortunately autoduel came out for the Mac.  Wasteland has not, however, I
can either emulate it through a IIe emulator, SoftWindoze, or run it on any
286 (which are going for less than Apple IIs it seems).

As I see it, the best games came out when the Apple IIs were around.  Games
that didn't rely on fancy graphics, just on gameplay.  People love the game
"Escape Velocity", but it just doesn't compare to the old space trading
games like "SunDog".  Memories... :)
