INTRODUCTION
WHAT HAPPENED ON NAPOLEONS' WEDDING NIGHT . . IN STAR WARS, WHO WAS THE LEADER OF THE STORM TROOPERS . . WHAT DO JUMBO AND TRIGGER HAVE IN COMMON . . .
The answers to these and dozens of other weird, wonderful questions are found in MICROTRIVIA. Match your wits with RALPH THE TRIVIAL COMPUTER and then, when rendered witless, inflict the same fate on your unsuspecting friends. Speakeasy's MICROTRIVIA is certain to make them feel totally inadequate.
WARNING . . . DO NOT LET YOUR CHILDREN PLAY - THEY WILL CERTAINLY KNOW MORE THAN YOU.
MICROTRIVIA is not a serious, educational simulation designed for Ph.D. candidates and is best played at a party, along with plenty of good food and drink. All kinds of famous people have not played MICROTRIVIA, PRESIDENT CARTER has not played MICROTRIVIA. BOBBY ORR has not played MICROTRIVIA.
However, we are pleased to see that you are playing MICROTRIVIA, and we hope it will provide you and your friends with a good deal of amusement. Normally, it is our policy to produce software that instructs as well as amuses - but in this case we don't think we should make any claims of that sort, lest you decide to sue us.
So, just enjoy it and if you would like to see more programs of this nature, please let us know.

People who don't have a computer and who have never used one before, tend to hit the RETURN key too hard, so much so at times, that they end up stopping the program. A reminder that a gentle touch will do is often in order.
