In Solarian II, to fire the scissors, you have to hit the l;' 3-key combination. On Extended ADB keyboards, this isn't a problem. The 3-key combination will register. BUT, on Standard ADB keybaords, it's impossible to register those 3 keys at the same time. Other than that, Solarian II is a GREAT game. I only wish I had a Mac II so I could play it. *sigh* Ken -- Ken Hancock '90 | DISCLAIMER: I'm graduating and looking for Consultant | a job, so I'll stand by my words.
