Hi, I am a first year student at York University in Toronto. I am enrolled in a Social Science course called Computer Consciousness. I have an assignment for which I have to keep an eye on a single news group and report on it. I have to respond to questions such as: a) How often do people type articles on the subject? b) How many people send articles? c) What type of articles are posted/written? I hope you get the point. First I thought it would be very boring, but now that I have read some of the articles, I find this very interesting. Personally, I have only seen one auto simulator on the commodore 64, which my cousin has, called Test Drive. I don't know how many people have played it, but it SUCKS. The graphics are not that great and when you go around a bend, you sometimes loose control of the car. If you have any new games that you would recommend, please tell me about them. I would also appreciate it if you would tell me some more information about this news group so I can do better when I put in my report. Thanks for any help and I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy and Prosperous New Year. Asheesh.

It was an more realistic than Test Drive the graphics and sound were OK. A few years later I got the PC version, the Commodore versionwas better Trt it if you can find it. Paul
