It's for the Macintosh...the new version just came out on CD-ROM, and there's
a review of it in the most recent (?) Inside Mac Games, an online Mac Games
magazine that might be a bit useless if you don't have a mac.

I don't have the game, but it's a CD-ROM game for the Mac (and maybe others). 
It's available from Educorp. as well as others, I suppose.

It's for the Mac, based on CD ROM.  I've never seen it but I hear that it's
pretty steamy.

Where do you get SIMUSEX???  I've heard of it, but I've never heard ABOUT
it or where I can get it.  Any ideas?

something like that.

I've not seen it firsthand, but have read several articles about it as well
as an interview with Mike Saenz, the wild man who created Virtual Valerie 
(sort of a follow-up to the classic "MacPlaymate").  It's supposed to be lots
of fun the first time, kind of run-of-the-mill after that, maybe even boring
after a while...  Saenz said he put lots of cute things to discover in the
building she "lives" in, though, which should keep things fresh.

He also said (I'll try to find the *#&!@! magazine) that the "sequel" was
probably going to be called something like "Donna Matrix," and joked about
creating a spinoff company from Reactor that would specialize in such types
of software -- he'd call it "Erector!"

It's shareware!  I got a copy of it somewhere (don't remember where, though)
Check on ftp.ulowell.edu in .../msdos-games/...
