FLASH1296  I love BG Blitz.

There is simply nothing near its level for Macs.

"Absolute Backgammon" is just for casual players.

THIS is for those who wish to IMPROVE their game, taking it to a new level.

I have played in tournaments across the USA between 1985 and 2006. I know of what i speak, and I have the trophies to prove it.  (Version 2.5.2)

TECNIK  What a bunch of ungrateful dorks! This game rocks! What a concept...a Mac game, with no blood, and you actually have to think. Yea, it kicks my @ss if I play stupid. That's with it set to intermediate skill.

I thank those coders who work endless, thankless, payless hours, to create for Macs. In case you haven't noticed...elegant & innovative Mac software has steadily faded away over the years (think Adobe and StuffIt just recently). Blame King Jobs.

Many great wares started on Apple, now they don't remember us any more. Soon you'll have just Solitaire, Mines...

Thank you Frank, MacAddicts DO appreciate your efforts!  (Version 1.9.5)
