Man, what a cool find. And I had no idea that my beloved Centuri made any
vector games! Learn something new every other day, I guess.
I would doubt seriously that other Centuri boards could be hacked to run
Aztarac, since as far as I can tell, they made no other vector games. Glad
to hear you did find some of the tough items though such as the monitor bubble.
Boy, Centuri wore that cab out, didn't they? Used in almost every game
they made.
