	Bing!  I just realized which game you were talking about.  I loved
that game on my Atari 8-bit!  As I recall, it was on the disk published with
COMPUTE!, so I never typed it in, but that means I should have the issue in
question at my parents house.  The downside of this is that I'm not sure how
long it will be before I go there.  But yes, I do believe that there was a 
PC version.  Maybe I'll go home so I can get it, now that I think about it...
