Heh. Never quite understood what it is that motivates people to write
stuff like this. Cool, but really rather strange. In the same vein
I've seen Mac (System 7) and Amiga (AmigaDOS?) emulators for the PC that
run software for their native systems without a hitch. While I'm
impressed with the programming, I can't help but wonder who writes
these things...

Yeah! One of the few muds I've been on that the imps complained I wasn't
swearing enough. (Which is amazing, because I have a pretty foul mouth.)
Tons of fun stuff on Tron...a great way to just relax and have some
feverent, keyboard-pounding fun. I played Tron II but didn't recall
being all that impressed.
> BatMud -- Just have a look.
This one is stunning for its size, if nothing else. It's the only
LP I know of that regularly sustains several hundred players. I heard
someone quote a stat that they had around 160,000 objects after 24 hours
of uptime. They must have some serious RAM on that machine...
