That is, of course, the best solution, but how many people are going to
lay out the cash for an Atari 800 (XL/XE) plus disk drive JUST to play
M.U.L.E. or Archon?

I still have my old 800XL sitting in a box in the closet, along with
LOTS of game disks (including Archon and M.U.L.E.) and it's rare that I
even pull it out of the closet and hook it up anymore. If it broke down,
I'd either live with the CGA graphics (if I could find a way to slow the
game down on my '386 ;-) or do without.
