Today is the 20th anniversary of one of the brightest days in British Gaming History. The release of the first version of Lemmings[^] :) If any of you are in Dundee tonight, there's a small celebration event at Abertay University[^], featuring talks, videos, and a chance to meet the creators of the original game and ask them how it all happened. [ I joined DMA several years after that big event, but I'll be popping along to see the old gang again... :) ]

You can still buy lemmings if you want it. I miss Jezball - it won't run on a 64-bit system.

Isn't that reason enough to "need" a second, 32 bit machine?
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.
