Does anybody know if a version of Donkey Kong was
ever done for IBM PC-CLONES?  Also, has anybody 
ever heard of a software company called CHAMP PROGRAMMING?

If you have any information on either of these things please
E-MAIL me directly.

Thanks

There was an Atarisoft version of Donkey Kong for PC's over ten years ago.  It had crappy CGA graphics and a
non-DOS disk which had to be booted in the machine.  It will not run on today's machines.

I play Donkey Kong on my PC with a Commodore 64 Emulator, using the C-64 version(s) of Donkey Kong; two of them
were released, one by Atarisoft and the other by Ocean Software.  The Ocean one is particularly good, with
all four playfields, intermissions, high scores, sounds and graphics very close to the arcade version.
