Verges are the grass at the side of the track and hills are.... look
do you _really_ need someone to explain to you what a hill is?

Some of us are fed up with seeing posts about Hawa-***ing-ii.

Why? Just because it is THE best auto simulator ever invented?

It seems suspicious that the box just says 'VGA graphics' on the back
not SVGA. Were they considering dropping SVGA the same way they
dropped weather?

I noticed that the 'requirements' section on the box is on a sticker. I
peeled it off, and found a different set of requirements on the back.
Namely:

For IBM PC 486, Pentium, and 100% Compatibles with CD-ROM
Required: 8mb RAM * Double Speed CD-ROM DRive *
Colour monitor with VGA/SVGA graphics * MS-DOS 5.0 or higher
Recommended: 66Mhz * Joystick * Microsoft Mouse
Supported: Sound Blaster (and 100% compatibles) *
Gravis Ultrasound * Pro Audio Spectrum

Try looking at the CD ... it says it was printed in 1995 (or copyright in
1995) ... all indications point to the fact that the docs and box and
cd's were printed WELL before the game was finished (last year).

Long since entered Hawaii into my kill filters!!!! Considering how
much I'm filtering out these days, splitting the groups is something
I'll vote in favour of. I didn't used to feal this way, but I can't
keep up these days!
