Well, I did it!!  Yep, I took the plunge and bought my 3rd piece of Mac
software ever.  This famous honor is shared by:

	LightSpeed C (spectacular)
	SuperMac's SuperSpool (like my Jasmine 40, indispensable)

and...	yep, Behond Dark Castle.

	I decided, that after numerous hours of entertainment with some of the
other superior games produced by Silicon Beach Software (Airborne and of course
Dark Castle to name a couple), it was the least I could do to fork over $27
($30 including shipping via MacConnection).

	What can I say about it??  Quite incredable.  I'm running it on a Plus
with a hard drive and besides a slight delay switching between screens (which
is certainly not noticable on the Mac II) it is flawless!!  The horizontal and
vertical scrolling along with the other neat features Pierce, Gay and the otherhackers at SBS installed, are all sights to see.  Wait till you run around
dodging slithering snakes, setting bombs and bonking guards with your mace.

To the folks at Silicon Beach:
	Brillian work!!!!!  Hats off to you!!!!
	Just one favor.  Please hold off writing on the Behond, Behond DC
		till I have time to finish this one (a year or three).

p.s.  I know it might be hard to believe but I am not affiliated with any of
	the above companies I meantioned... O.K. plugged.
