I've been playing GLTron on Mac OS X for over a year now.

MCP = Microsoft Control Program

I got the two-disc DVD set of the movie the day Disney released it. First time I'd seen it widescreen in a long time.

In Tron, The MCP, or Master Control Program, was the evil program that had taken on a life of its own. It's objective was to take over the world and to eliminate smaller programs by assimilating them into the MCP itself.


Sound familiar?

Neat but they sure make it hard to download.

While cool, I was a bit disappointed. I was hoping for the classic tron video game with the 3(?) separate modules, discs, tanks and lightcycles.

I suppose that's why we have MAME.

I remeber going to DisneyWorld the summer that Tron opened.

The arcade there had about 50 Tron games lined up and every one of them was taken.

I loved that game. Used all my souvenier money for the trip on Tron.

sorry, wasn't taking a dig at ya.

"Sound familiar?" should've been "Sound like any software company we know?"

Actually, I'd love to see Jobs vs. Gates in a light cycle duel. (Gates ' cycle would, of course, be continually crashing, while Jobs' would be unexplainably "lickable")
