Thanks for the heads-up and link. 

Alas, I am hesitant. I never managed to get more than a few hours of 
entertainment out of the Ultima titles. Somehow his game design or his 
concepts or something just doesn't gel for me. Can hardly believe that I 
may have played the first one on a C=64, iirc. 

I WAS going to donate to "At The Gates" but they closed off the funding 
campaign before I got around to it. Heh.
