Guest bloach Posted April 9, 2003 Report Share Posted April 9, 2003 I recently upgraded my old and wrinkled mandrake 6.1 helios to 9.1. I am quite impressed with the interface and ease of use, but what ever happened to that selection of arcade-style games?! I certainly miss that calculator, but I can live without EMACS. I assume I missed something between 6.1 and 9.1. If this stuff isn't hidden in the bowels of 9.1, is there a place I can download them? Thanks Bloach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
