We bought SpaceQuest IV this morning and have been playing it since. And
we're desperately stuck, and I mean hopelessly... We're in SpaceQuest X
Latex Babes from SomeSuchThing and we have just completed the shopping mall.
We got the PocketPal connector, won the Astro Chicken game, and managed to
fool the guards to leave the time machine. However, we can't figure out
the coordinates (there is nothing in the manual) and there is a portion of
it in the strange version of the Sierra Hint Book in the game, but I
seriously doubt-judging from the surronding hogwash-that that part is true.

Has anybody figured this out ??? Are the coordinates scribbled on top
of something or the other, or has the SpaceQuest team finally gone mad and
expect everybody to figure out a 6-digit coordinate each one of 15
possibilities. At this stage that sounds quite likely ...

Everything-including spoilers-welcome.

P.S.: please reply by email, since I'm not a frequent reader of these
newsgroups ;)
