As far as I know Tetris (it's >commercial you know) comes with the DA. Therefore, anyone legally in possess- >ion of the DA should have a copy of the program too. The Mac II version doesn't come with the DA version, des[ite what it says on the box. A little insert says there is no DA version provided. Also, it won't run on a machine without 256 color/grey capability, again despite what it says on the box. Boy was I bummin' when I bought it last year before I had 256 greys. BTW, I doesn't seem to map the clut very well to greyscale either. When I look at the pictures with VisionLab they look great, but only fair while actually playing. Is this the program or my system?
