thanks Owen!
yeah $60 in 1986 is 'equivalent' to $138 this year (ran through a googled 'inflation calculator')! and that doesn't take into account the difference in my personal salary (minimum wage bus boy for $3.35/hr) to today's robot and semiconductor manufacturing machine guru lol
computer games were sooooo expensive. my 16 year old brain would have been overjoyed to see what 2018 PC games could do, for a fraction of the relative cost. :)
your comments at BBG are great - I never knew about the Sector Edit hacks and such, too funny. The 'taking a bus' trick is amazing. i always figured i was stuck driving!
Did you ever find the answer to the 2014 Purple Flash of Concord?
