Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego - Quick Question

Scott Baret

For any vets of this game, how many cases do you need to get into the Hall of Fame on the 5th floor? (I'm sitting at 33 cases and on the fourth floor now).

 
I have GOT to get this game... Anybody have any leads on where I can pick up a copy legally (or if not legally, at least with a clear conscience)?

Peace,

Drew

 
Check around with the folks who sell the old software, such as B&R Computer, Herb's Mac Stuff, etc. I don't think either has it in inventory right now but it wouldn't hurt to ask.

If you look on eBay, make sure you look for a FLOPPY version. There are usually tons of CDs of Carmen on there but they are too new.

Don't forget the local sources like school surplus, thrift stores, used bookstores, etc. Plus disks occasionally will show up randomly here in the trading post--remember that big lot Mike had a few weeks ago?

The big trick is that you also need the Brøderbund edition of the New American Desk Encyclopedia along with the disks. If you find disks by themselves, you may want to look at a library book sale or a used book store for this.

Drew: Do you realize that your signature contains two alternate names for the MacMag virus???

Huh? You lost me here, so I suppose I did (and do) not realize that... Please explain.
Thanks for the tips on picking up the game!

Ha! I did not know that! I don't write viruses (wouldn't even know where to start).

Peace,
