several of the infocom games for RT-11

they are fun to take for a spin from time to time
who is familiar with "the warp factor", released only(I'm told) for the
apple II and atari 800+. Basically a cut-down Star Fleet Battles clone
for the computer, one of my favorites but I can't seem to make an image
or find it for the Atari...
The ultima sets are really cool, I think I have the set (the first is
the re-issue for the apple) , how many were there?

Yep.
This is especially important if any of the titles
are from Infocom...
Indeed, Infocom games can represent a whole subclass of collecting. I've got Zork on 8" disk in the original
packaging for CP/M systems ;)
Cool! My oldest Zork is the edition published by Personal Software
for the TRS-80. It's the only reason I want to have one (well...
that plus we had a Model III and Model IV at my high school - they
were replaced by Rainbows, but that's a different story).
I didn't buy it (nothing to run it on at the time), but I remember
seeing the RT-11 version of either Starcross or Planetfall (RX01)
on the wall at the Digital Store in Downtown Columbus, c. 1984.
Exactly my point. The maps that came with each
Ultima are also an
example.
Them, too. I'm sure there's lots of examples in the gaming world.
