Just to make sure that no rumors are started, Magic is NOT public domain.
The program is copyrighted by the University of California.  The software license
is pretty liberal, and always includes source code.  We *usually* don't mind if 
people share their mods & ports, as long as large amounts of source code aren't 
passed around and the parties involved all have licenses.  The program is far
too big to email (about 120K lines of C code).

As far as running on a MacII, I've heard that rumor but don't have any offical
confirmation.  If you have seen it running let me know!
