BARIS - free to distribute, apparently

A couple of years ago ssh got rather enthused over the computer game
/Buzz Aldrin's Race Into Space/, an adaptation of the old board game
"Liftoff!"

I just got pointed to this:

http://www.geocities.com/raceintospa...yrightInfo.txt

Basic summary: the contract expired back in ~1997, and all the rights
reverted to the designers. They've only just discovered this, it
seems...

As a result, it seems the CD-ROM version is now freely distributable
(emphasis freely; there's a no-profit clause) on the web.
http://www.geocities.com/raceintospace/ may be of interest in that
regard.

Anyway, thought someone might be interested...

Anyone else care to expose their machines to whatever may be hiding
inside those files?

....Which begs the question: what OS are you running it under, and what
speed is the CPU?
