Commander X16

Wow! You sure this was an X16? 'Cause I thought I was watching an Amiga demo. As Colonel Potter said, "Fan-damn-tastic!" I'd never heard of SR before, so after this demo, I watched the original. Very similar in most places. I am curious about that large gorilla, however.

Just tried Try It Now again. This time it just spun its wheel. After five minutes, nothing showed up in the Preparing bar.

I guess it's just not meant to be.

RUN.

I get a "File Not Found" error.

Played with it on the Web emulator. A few items:

• Needs a music on/off switch
• A rogue square is sometimes generated on the play field
• An instructions screen is always welcome

Or even existed.

Cool...um, what are they?

I haven't used this, but as someone who works in the education field, even if you don't think it's needed, put in a Read Me file. Never assume the intelligence of the user. More often than not, you'll be disappointed.

Couple questions spring to mind:

• Given the fluid nature of the OS/firmware, what's to stop this device from becoming crippled in the future?
• Will this fit into the cases that are currently available?
