I just bought Lands of Lore and have been playing it for a couple of
evenings.  I have found that there are certain things which I can't
pick up (Roland's key, some of the rocks, etc.) unless I turn off
the "floating cursor".  This is a pain because for normal movement,
"floating cursor" is preferred.  I am now having to go into the game
controls setting to toggle back and forth each time I encounter an
object that appears at the very bottom of the 3D view.  Has anyone
else experienced this problem?  Does Westwood have an e-mail address?

I have found the cursor keys of great convenience and speed

Yes, that was the reason why I used the keyboard.  But this is surely a
matter of personal prefs ...
