I did so last night and found that *basically*, the game runs. It's only incredibly slow... So I don't know if this is a problem of my machine (486) or if I get the settings completely wrong. I tried to look this up in the executor faq but (shame !!) I simply don't understand the difference between the various options for graphics (animation and such, especially: what is a normal refresh setting?). Could anyone give me a little hint? Also, the game can't exit - if you choose the exit command in the file menu, the bye button appears (as with a real mac) but you can't press it and therefore, the only way to exit is by pressing a certain button on the front panel of your computer... Thanks in advance for any suggestions ! There has already been too much discussion about this, but I just can't keep it to myself: Bernie, if you really do care so much about your wallet, you should buy executor NOW !! You said yourself that 50 $ would be an acceptable price, as for the quality of the product - paying now instead of later can only improve it... After all there has to be at least a little bit of philantropy around, otherwise everything's going to go down the black hole (I can afford a clear consience, I already paid!).
