GAMES:ARCADE/ACTION
 Castle Wolfenstein and Karateka are only the best games
ever to cause me to loose study time.  I also played allot
of Sammy Lightfoot.

 
GAMES:ADVENTURE/ROLE PLAYING
 Eamon Adventures, Below the Root, The Lurking Horror,
Ultima IV and Wizardry I Proving Grounds of the Mad overlord
were all great mapping challenges and good adventuring.

 I don't like strategy games, but Microchess 2.0 and Seven
Cities of Gold killed alot of CPU cycles for me.

 I liked DOs 3.3 because it was so open that one could patch
it and hack it any way you'd like to.  I modified command
names and customized it several different ways.

 Yes, the best was Applesoft Basic.  I learned to program by
hacking Eamon games.  :)

 I use Agate and ProTerm

 Copy II Plus, version 5 because you could use it on
modified DOS 3.3 (Like DiskQuick Ram drive) and Version 7
for ProDOS based files.

> GRAPHICS MANIPULATION
 I wrote my own graphics drawing program.  But I used Print
Shop to place it on the paper.  OK, I did use Koala Micro
Illustrator a little.  Its Joystick/Paddle interface sucked
for positioning the cursor, it was too jumpy.
