Greetings,

  Well, this tears it.  Here I bought this really spiffy color computer, and
when I try to play Chuck Yeager's AFT, I get one of two behaviours:

  o  Running from floppy I get "You must run off of a hard disk to use color"
  o  Running from the HD (as directed in their instructions), the machine
     hangs (necessitating restart) before getting to the airplane silhouettes.

I do have the video card (SuperMac Colorcard/24) set to 16-color mode, as
instructed, and I ran with no inits, under Finder alone, but to no avail.
AFT's version number is 1.00.  Do I need an update?

HELP!

--Mike
