    Does anyone have a copy of Newtown, by Mindflight, that will actually run the instructions? Every copy I've downloaded just sort of hangs on the menu after you press 1 and return. It displays "Please Wait" at the bottom of the screen, but there is no
    visible disk activity, unlike with any other menu choice.

    You could call this a very early version of Sim City for the Apple II. I'd really like to be able to play, so any help will be welcome!

    Thanks in advance,
    magnus

    alchemist,
    Thank you very much for the link to the version on Apple Enthusiasts on Facebook! What isreally interesting is that was just uploaded in the last few hours. Would that be you doing that? Either way thanks again for this.
