	Thanks. I also have picked up confirmation of Scantron Quality 
Computer Apple II titles. I have been re-writing the web-pages again after 
seeing the Apple IIGS Gaming Fairway pages.

	Also I have sort verification on a few other titles that has been 
put as reclassified.

	And I just found a new lead into Beam International's Melbourne 
House publishing arm, hopefully, I can get them to release the rest of the 
Apple II titles through them -> War in the Middle Earth. They are not that 
far from where I am (in Australia anyway).
