With this reply from Joe Regan:

<<Great idea! A formalized push to all the company's for the Apple2
software is greatly needed. If a few start recognizing that others are
willing, they will probably yield too.>>

Thanks for the positive reply on this project - Joe.  Most avid IIgs game
users (including the folks at Cinenaware too) - today know that the titles are
already available online for downloads and use with REAL IIgs machines and the
many IIgs emulators for the Mac and PC platforms too
from the 'IIgs Gaming Fairway web site'.   

Now that I found the link to the Cinemaware site from the 'IIgs Gaming Fairway
web site' - I figured it was HIGH TIME to make an effort to have them
reclassificed for LEGAL
access and download status as freeware.

Thanks to you and all the many others that have sent me email on this project -
I will forward all of your replies on the the peoper floks at Cinemaware
fortheir refiew and consideration on such.

Cheers,
Tom
